North Bay Village Real Estate

North Bay Village is a three-island community situated in northeast Miami-Dade County between Miami and Miami Beach. Surrounded by the sparkling waters of Biscayne Bay, it enjoys a mild year-round climate. Steady tropical breezes keep the winters moderate and the summers cool. The three islands include North Bay Island, Harbor Island and Treasure Island and are linked by the 79th Street Causeway, which extends across Biscayne Bay from Miami to Miami Beach. Providing the City has excellent access to major airports, beaches, downtown Miami and Broward County via I-95 and 79th Street.

Before 1940, most of current North Bay Village lay beneath Biscayne Bay. The only dry land was Broadcast Key, a five-acre island from which pioneer radio station WIOD began broadcasting in 1926. Today, television station WSVN-TV maintains its headquarters at this same site, now joined with Treasure Island. In 1940, dredging and bulk-heading created North Bay Island. By 1941, palm-lined streets had been laid out, and 12 homes had been built and occupied. Today, the island has grown into a lush neighborhood of attractive single-family residences.

During the mid 1940's, dredging and filling created Harbor Island and Treasure Island. Harbor Island is composed primarily of multi-family buildings. Treasure Island, whose street names were drawn from Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Treasure Island, is a mixture of single family dwellings on the westerly end and multi-family dwellings on the eastern end. North Bay Village was incorporated in 1945. Harbor and Treasure Islands were annexed several years later. Broadcast Key, also known as Cameo Island, was annexed in 1963. During its early years, North Bay Village was primarily a haven for winter residents. The City became widely known for its popular restaurants and nightclubs, which attracted celebrities like Frank Sinatra and Judy Garland.

Most of today's residents live here year-round. North Bay Village continues to be home to several of South Florida's most popular restaurants, as well as a variety of business enterprises, apartment buildings, condominiums and 376 single-family homes. Adjacent to Miami Beach which has an identity that is intrinsically linked to the arts, North Bay Village enjoys entertainment, production and arts communities are stronger than ever. The village is right in the middle of it all and right next door to world class nightlife restaurants and boutiques and just a short drive to Coconut Grove, Downtown Miami and The Miami International Airport. The Village also offers proximity to a host of recreational activities including: Countless art museums and cultural attractions, Metrozoo, Parrot Jungle and Gardens, the Miami Museum of science and Planetarium and the brand New Miami Children's Museum.
