A Baltimore-based real estate investment firm is opening the first satellite office in its nearly 60-year history in Naples both to manage an existing Southwest Florida portfolio and to better eye future acquisitions.

Continental Realty Corp. currently owns six retail properties in and around Naples totaling 350,000 square feet, including the Colonnade on Fifth on Fifth Avenue; the 110,000-square-foot Bed Bath & Beyond Plaza; and the Esplanade Shoppes, on Marco Island.
