Why Bay Harbor Islands is a waterfront construction story
Bay Harbor Islands is a small, two-island municipality set between Biscayne Bay and the Indian Creek waterway, and almost every new building on its east and west spines is designed around the water: private marinas, boat slips, bay-facing terraces and rooftop pool decks. In its buyer's guide to boutique waterfront condos, MILLION's Journal describes the area as a case study in a "small-building, big-lifestyle" approach, with low-rise and mid-rise residences that trade on privacy, walkability and boating access while staying minutes from Bal Harbour and Miami Beach.
That context matters because delivery timing in a boutique market works differently than in a large tower. Buildings with a few dozen residences can be affected by a single permitting, inspection or supply issue, and public schedules often change between a launch announcement and a topping-off. This guide therefore anchors each timeline to the party that stated it, whether a developer's own website or a named news outlet, and flags where the public record is thin.
Bay Harbor Islands also sits beside Bal Harbour, and buyers comparing the two will find that the islands offer a different scale: smaller footprints, direct slips and a residential street grid. The projects below are the waterfront buildings under construction or recently marketed as such, listed with the delivery language each source actually uses.
Bay Harbor Towers: Indian Creek frontage and a 2027 target
Bay Harbor Towers, at 10141 East Bay Harbor Drive, is developed by PPG Development with architecture by Kobi Karp, interiors by Steven G. and landscape design by CLAD. The project's official website currently describes the building as under construction and "delivering early 2027," and presents it as a boutique collection of forty-four private residences along the northern shoreline, where Indian Creek meets Biscayne Bay.
The same website describes flow-through two-, three- and four-bedroom layouts that separate living areas from private quarters, along with bespoke finishes, water views and boat slips. For a buyer, the practical point is that the developer's own site is the most authoritative statement of timing, and it points to early 2027. Earlier marketing for the building used earlier windows, so anyone relying on a screenshot or a brochure should ask the sales team for the current written schedule.
Because a marina is central to the appeal, it is worth asking how slips are assigned, whether they are deeded or licensed, and what vessel dimensions each can accommodate. Those details are specific to the building and are best confirmed in the offering documents rather than in marketing copy.
La Baia North: a January 2027 delivery on East Bay Harbor Drive
La Baia North, from Continuum Company at 9481 East Bay Harbor Drive, is an eight-story waterfront building. Final Residences Remaining," and its news page carries posts dated as recently as October 21, 2026. That makes the developer's site the clearest dated statement of timing available for this building.
MILLION's Journal, in its guide to boutique waterfront condos, describes La Baia North as a companion boutique project planned at the same address, reported as an eight-story building with 57 residences. The outlet adds that construction reporting noted a groundbreaking in October 2024, with roughly 75 percent of the building pre-sold around that time. Those are historical markers rather than current availability, so they should not be read as a present sales status.
The developer's news page also references a yacht club membership offered through Continuum Company, in a post dated December 1, 2025, and the site's imagery emphasizes the pool overlooking the bay. Buyers interested in the boating program should ask what the membership includes, whether it is optional, and how it connects to slip access.
La Maré: two separate waterfront buildings on East Bay Harbor Drive
La Maré is marketed as a collection of boutique condominiums on East Bay Harbor Drive. According to the official La Maré website, the Regency Collection at 9927 East Bay Harbor Drive is an eight-story building with 33 two- to four-bedroom residences, wrap-around floor-to-ceiling glass facing Biscayne Bay, a private marina and an elevated rooftop pool deck. The Signature Collection at 9781 East Bay Harbor Drive is described as an eight-story, glass-clad building of just nine residences, also two to four bedrooms, with terraces and private plunge pools.
The developer's website, as reviewed, does not state a completion date for either building, and it would be a mistake to infer one from the construction activity visible on the street. The Regency Collection is designed by Kobi Karp with interiors by Debora Aguiar, according to a 2026 project guide that also emphasizes private boat slips and a rooftop infinity pool.
Given that gap, the most useful question for a buyer is a direct one: what is the current projected delivery for each collection, and how does the contract treat a delay? Since the two buildings are separate products with different scale, a buyer should compare them individually rather than treating La Maré as a single schedule.
9900 West, Onda and Origin: what is stated, and what is not
9900 West Bay Harbor Drive is a boutique bayfront project. The outlet was careful to say that this is a residence-specific estimate and not a building-wide occupancy confirmation, a distinction worth keeping in mind for any estimated quarter.
Onda Residences is described by MILLION's Journal as a seven-story, 41-residence bayfront condominium designed by Arquitectonica, led by Bernardo Fort-Brescia, and developed by Morabito Properties together with CMC Group. The outlet highlights a wellness-oriented amenity package, including a rooftop pool deck, Technogym equipment, a sauna and steam. No delivery date is given in that description, so timing should be requested from the developer.
For Origin Bay Harbor Islands, the same outlet says the development has been described with two- to four-bedroom residences of roughly 2,135 to 2,200 square feet, and advises confirming the details of any specific floor plan. A published square footage range is a starting point; the architect's plans attached to a contract are the document that governs.
How to read a delivery estimate in a boutique waterfront building
Estimated delivery is a forecast, and the language used around it varies. A developer may say "delivering," a news outlet may say "estimated," and a listing may say "year built" for a building that is still rising. MILLION's Journal makes the point directly: neither an asking price nor a stated year built establishes current availability, completed-sale value or move-in readiness. Treat each estimate as a dated statement from a named party, and note the date it was made.
Delivery is also distinct from closing readiness. Substantial completion, a certificate of occupancy for the building, marina and dock readiness, and unit-level punch lists can each arrive on different days. For a waterfront purchase the marina is worth separate attention, since slips, docks and any shared boating facilities may be finished on a different timeline than the residential floors.

Frequently asked questions
Which Bay Harbor Islands waterfront condos are under construction?
Projects covered in this guide include Bay Harbor Towers at 10141 East Bay Harbor Drive, La Baia North at 9481 East Bay Harbor Drive, the La Maré Regency and Signature collections at 9927 and 9781 East Bay Harbor Drive, and 9900 West Bay Harbor Drive. MILLION's Journal also profiles Onda Residences and Origin.
When is Bay Harbor Towers expected to be delivered?
The project's official website currently states "delivering early 2027." Because earlier marketing used earlier windows, ask the developer for the current written schedule before relying on any date.
Has La Maré announced a completion date?
The official La Maré website describes the Regency Collection as an eight-story, 33-residence building and the Signature Collection as an eight-story, nine-residence building, but it does not state a completion date for either. Ask the developer for the current projected delivery of each.
Who is behind Onda Residences?
MILLION's Journal describes Onda Residences as a seven-story, 41-residence bayfront condominium designed by Arquitectonica and developed by Morabito Properties together with CMC Group.
Do these buildings include marinas or boat slips?
According to the developers' websites, Bay Harbor Towers offers boat slips, and the La Maré Regency Collection offers a private marina. La Baia North's developer materials reference yacht club membership. Slip counts, dimensions and ownership structure should be confirmed in the offering documents.
Is an estimated delivery date the same as move-in readiness?
No. MILLION's Journal notes that an estimated delivery quarter is not confirmation that a home can be occupied. Building completion, occupancy approvals and unit-level readiness can occur on different dates.
