Continuum Company Breaks Ground On The Sold-Out La Baia, Bay Harbor Islands

La Baia, Bay Harbor Islands, the new luxury boutique bayfront condominium and private marina by New York visionary and developer Ian Bruce Eichner, CEO of The Continuum Company, LLC, has broken ground. The Continuum Company hosted a groundbreaking ceremony with Suffolk Construction on April 13, the appointed general contractor of the condominium, and La Baia’s exclusive sales brokerage Pgutman LLC headed by Phil Gutman, to commemorate the start of construction on the project site located at 9201 East Bay Harbor Drive.

In addition to announcing this milestone, The Continuum Company has completely sold-out the 68 luxurious residences which launched sales in October. The unprecedented sales have been attributed to the property’s tranquil cove-like setting, well-appointed resort-style amenities, and large, airy offerings that have La Baia continuously outpacing the rest of the area’s luxury condominium market.

“This is a day of tremendous pride for us,” said Eichner, the founder of The Continuum Company, LLC. “Not only are we delighted to be hosting this momentous occassion so soon in the process, but La Baia’s extraordinary sell-out is a true testament to the unique lifestyle and transformative potential of the Bay Harbor Islands, one of Miami’s most coveted hidden gems.”

Featuring a highly sought-after location on one of the last large-scale land parcels remaining in South Florida’s exclusive Bay Harbor Islands, La Baia will feature just 68 luxurious residences with 20-boat slips and more than 30,000 sq. ft. of resort-style amenities. Sized from one- to four-bedrooms -- and spanning between 1,100 to 2,500 square feet -- each La Baia home will be delivered completely finished and ready to be designed, decorated and furnished. Every residence features well-appointed fixtures and finishes curated by New York-based Durukan Design, and kitchens featuring custom Italian cabinetry by Snaidero and Miele appliances. Ceiling heights range between nine- to 10- feet, there are spacious his-and-her walk-in closets, and balconies with glass railings offer unobstructed views of Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, Bal Harbour, Miami Beach and downtown Miami.

“Featuring the exceptional design talents of Revuelta Architecture, Durukan Design, and Enzo Enea, La Baia introduces a new dimension in urban, waterfront living that has attracted an overwhelming response from savvy buyers from the U.S. and around the world,” said Phil Gutman, President of Pgutman LLC, the project’s exclusive broker. “Combining spectacular style, unmatched exclusivity and an array of first-class amenities, La Baia celebrates the very best Miami has to offer.”

Offering the best of a yachtsman’s lifestyle, La Baia features a 20-slip marina available exclusively to residents, with direct ocean access via the Haulover Inlet that can take residents to the Florida Keys, the Bahamas, and beyond. Other waterfront amenities include paddle boarding, kayaking and more.

A myriad of additional resort-style amenities include a rooftop terrace with breathtaking ocean views, featuring a pool with poolside chaise lounge chairs, tropical heated soaking spa, children’s play area with an interactive splash pad, and shaded lounge areas for dining and entertaining.

The third-level breezeway garden offers residents a covered contemplative seating area and a reflection lawn for a yoga session or family gathering, while a Residents’ Club Room and state-of-the-art fitness center are among the property’s other top-line amenities.

“Building this gorgeous, boutique condominium on one of the last large-scale land parcels remaining in Bay Harbor Islands is exciting and special for our team,” said Peter Tuffo, president of the south region of Suffolk. “We will apply innovative technologies and our expertise in building luxury, waterfront residential projects to bring the stunning vision of La Baia to life.”

La Baia, Bay Harbor Islands is slated for project completion and delivery in November 2023. Continuum Company expects to launch a north tower in the near future.

Ian Bruce Eichner's Continuum Company Closes On Bay Harbor Waterfront Development Site, Plan September Sales Launch

Ian Bruce Eichner, developer of the Continuum South Beach, an iconic luxury condo tower in Miami Beach’s exclusive South of Fifth neighborhood, is back in South Florida with a new project involving two of the last large-scale vacant land parcels remaining in Bay Harbor Islands, Florida.

Eichner’s Continuum Company close on two properties located at 9201 East Bay Harbor Drive and 9461 East Bay Harbor Drive for $29,500,000. Phil Gutman oversaw the transaction and will be spearheading sales and marketing efforts for the project. Eichner submitted plans to the city, which are subject to modification, calling for two 7-story condominium towers with a combined 142 units and 34 boat slips.

“We’ve been looking for the right development opportunity to re-enter the Florida market. Bay Harbor is an overlooked neighborhood with many of the same attributes that contributed to the desirability and success of Continuum South Beach,” said Eichner.

Presales are anticipated to launch this September with a planned December groundbreaking. The 23-month construction schedule calls for a November 2023 delivery date. As with the Continuum South Beach, this Bay Harbor project will offer the same high quality deliverables and finishes that have become hallmarks of the Continuum Company.

“Bay Harbor is a phenomenal community. Steps from the beach and walking distance of the Bal Harbor Shops, we envision a development that will offer Bay-front living with boat slips that will allow residents to take full advantage of direct access to Biscayne Bay, the Atlantic and nearby boating destinations like the Bahamas and Florida Keys,” said Eichner.
