Since the 1920s, the Detroit-based Miami Beach Heights Corporation – headed by industrialists&nbsp;Robert C. Graham,&nbsp;Walter O. Briggs, and&nbsp;Carl G. Fisher&nbsp;– owned 245 acres (0.99&nbsp;km2) of undeveloped, partially swampy land that stretched from the bay to the Atlantic. Mr. Graham assumed the duties as the developer for Bal Harbour. In the 1930s, city planners&nbsp;Harland Bartholomew&nbsp;&amp; Associates were called in to design the Village. The company made several plans, and they were submitted to the Miami Beach Heights for review.The original name chosen for Bal Harbour was Bay Harbour. However, the planning committee didn't think that was appropriate for a city that was on the beach. A name was invented to encompass a village that ran from the bay to the Atlantic Ocean. The&nbsp;b&nbsp;was taken from the word&nbsp;bay&nbsp;and the&nbsp;a&nbsp;and&nbsp;l&nbsp;were taken from the name Atlantic. Hence the word&nbsp;Bal&nbsp;was created.In 1940, World War II began, and the plans were put on hold. As a goodwill gesture to the government, Robert C. Graham rented the land to the United States Air Corps for $1 per year. The Air Corps used this land to train their soldiers and established a&nbsp;Prisoner of War camp. The ocean front area was used as a&nbsp;rifle range&nbsp;and the barracks were set up on the west side of Collins Avenue. The camp for prisoners was located where the Bal Harbour Shops are presently.

Bay Point is a private residential development that stretches from NE 41st Street to NE 50th Street and is bordered on the west by Biscayne Bay and Biscayne Boulevard. The neighborhood has about 250 single-family homes, most of which were built in the 1940s and 1950s, and the average lot size is over 13,000 square feet. A high proportion of people are vacation or seasonal homeowners, as is the situation in many of Miami's beachfront areas. The streets, including the roaming safety patrol and security gate officers, are privately owned and managed by the homeowners..Despite the fact that the majority of the residences are on dry lots, the community has roughly 90 waterfront properties with direct bay access or frontage on the Sabal canal or Sabal Lake. The cost of a 3,000 square foot (280m2) home on a dry site in the Miami enclave ranges from around $1.1 million to just under $27 million for a premium waterfront estate with excellent bay views. Over the years, the neighborhood has attracted a number of celebrities, including Grammy Award winner Willy Chirino and former Miami Marlins ace pitcher Livan Hernandez, and is now home to Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova.
