How this is drawn: a unit's floor and line come from its MLS unit number alone (5614 is floor 56, line 14). A cell exists only where the MLS has recorded a listing, a closing or a lease; a blank means no record was seen, not that no unit exists. Column widths follow each line's median recorded living area. Pre-construction towers and buildings with a thin record have no drawing.

Activity as of Nov 2, 2026
  • Resale +46%. The median closed price moved from $215/SF in 2020 (11 sales) to $313/SF in 2026 (5 sales), the first and last years with three or more recorded sales.
  • Gross rental yield 10.7%. A year of rent at the median $2.78/SF/mo (9 leases) against the median $312/SF sale (6 sales), both over 12 months, before HOA, taxes and vacancy.
  • Asks run +18% against closings. Sellers ask a median $369/SF (5 listings) against $312/SF closed (6 sales, 12 months). That gap is negotiation room. Bring the comps.
  • Sells in a median 132 days. Days on market across the 6 sales closed in the last 12 months.

The Bridgewater is a 21-story tower at 1881 79th St Cswy in North Beach, completed in 2006. The Miami-Dade Property Appraiser lists 118 residential units, averaging 1,287 SF of living area. The condo archive records it as a waterfront building.

On November 2, 2026, five units were listed for sale, asking $399K to $715K (median ask $369/SF across 5 listings). Six sales closed between November 2, 2025 and November 2, 2026, from $318K to $580K, a median $312/SF, after a median 132 days on the market. In the 12 months before that, three sales closed at a median $310/SF, essentially the same level. The MLS holds 67 closed sales here going back to 2019; among years with three or more sales, 2023 set the high at a median $390/SF. That 12-month median ranks 36th of the 45 North Beach buildings with at least three sales in the same window.

Three units were offered for rent at $3,500 to $5,145 a month. Nine leases were signed over the same 12 months, at a median $3,400 a month (range $2,800 to $4,700).

About 5% of the residences are owner-occupied according to county records, which points to an investor-heavy ownership base.

FEMA flood zone

AE

Inside FEMA's Special Flood Hazard Area. A federally backed mortgage requires flood insurance here.

What the zone means
  • The 1% annual chance ("100-year") flood area, with a base flood elevation set.
  • Base flood elevation 9 ft (NGVD29).
  • The zone is a map line, not a premium. Ask the association for its master flood policy, and get a flood quote for the specific unit before you commit.

Milestone structural inspection

Due 2036

Due by statute by December 31, 2036, 30 years after 2006, then every 10 years.

What the deadline means
  • Miami-Dade sets 25 years for condo buildings within three miles of the coastline, which would be December 31, 2031.
  • Based on year built 2006 (county record). The statute counts from the certificate of occupancy date, which can differ.
  • The association must give every owner the inspector's summary. Ask for it, and for the structural integrity reserve study, before you commit.

Fla. Stat. § 553.899(3) ↗ and Miami-Dade recertification ↗, read Oct 9, 2026. What the deadline means for buyers
