North Bay Village Mixed Use 30 Story Tower Development Project
Canadian real estate developer Jesta Group, under the North Bay Village Holdings, LLC (NBV Holdings), has requested a review from the Shoreline Development Review Committee (SDRC) of North Bay Village for a proposed 30-story mixed-use tower at 1819 and 1855 79th Street Causeway. Home to a Best Western Hotel and the iconic Shuckers Waterfront Bar & Grill, both owned by NBV Holdings, the 2.31-acre bay-front site is planned to yield a 340-foot-tall structure with 345 apartments, 256 hotel rooms, meeting and retail space. There would also be a new and improved Shuckers restaurant, a wide and welcoming public paseo and view corridor, and an Island Walk promenade along the water. Kobi Karp Architecture & Interior Design Inc. is listed as the architect alongside Architectural Alliance Landscape for landscape architecture and Ross Engineering Inc. for civil engineering.
