Bel-Aire on the Ocean stands on the waterfront at 6515 Collins Ave in North Beach, a 19-floor tower with 129 residences, completed in 2004. Its Car-Free Index is 0, while the nearest Publix is 550 m (about 0.3 miles) away in a straight line.

On flood and storm exposure, the building sits in FEMA zone X, a minimal risk area where flood insurance is not federally required but is available. It is in Miami-Dade evacuation zone B, and the lowest street beside it is 4.3 ft above the highest tide predicted for 2026 at Virginia Key. Three active tower construction sites are within 1 km, which can bring noise and traffic while the work lasts, and new towers can change views.

On the 2025 tax roll, 18% of units carry a homestead exemption and 30% are owned by a company or trust. A public records check run October 22, 2026 found no liens, lawsuits or regulatory complaints at watch level or higher.
