Construction Underway on Major Aventura Retail, Office Complex

Construction is officially underway on Centtral Aventura, a mixed‑use development located at 20955 Biscayne Blvd in Aventura. The 145,000‑square‑foot project is being developed by ELJA Developers and is scheduled for delivery in Q4 2027. Centtral Aventura is being constructed by JAXI Builders, and the architects are Behar Font & Partners.

The groundbreaking follows the closing of a $70 million construction loan from Ocean Bank. Colliers Executive Vice Presidents Jonathan Carter and Dave Preston are leading retail and restaurant leasing on behalf of the ownership.

The nine‑story building will feature approximately 75,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space across the first three floors, 70,000 square feet of office space on the upper levels, and a 423‑space parking garage. Foundation work is currently underway.
