About the project

Jungle Island is a mixed-use redevelopment of the historic Watson Island attraction in Miami, led by a joint venture of Terra Group and ESJ Capital under the 'Ecoresiliency Miami' plan. The approved master plan pairs two towers rising up to 48 stories with as many as 600 luxury residences alongside a roughly 13-acre public waterfront park on Biscayne Bay, delivering tens of millions of dollars in public benefits. Framed as a resilient, publicly accessible bayfront destination between downtown Miami and Miami Beach, the project reimagines one of the city's best-known island sites.
