SLS LUX Brickell marks The Related Group’s fourth completed tower on South Miami Avenue, following the opening of 1100 Millecento, SLS Brickell Suites & Residences and the two-towered Brickell Heights. The development boasts an enviable location just steps away from Mary Brickell Village and the sprawling, two-million-square-foot Brickell City Centre, featuring luxury retail, cinemas, restaurants, further establishing the neighborhood as a 24-hour work/play environment.
“We envision each of our projects to energize and enhance the surrounding community. SLS LUX does both, but more importantly, further cements Brickell as Miami’s leading lifestyle destination,” said Jorge M. Pérez, Founder, Chairman and CEO of The Related Group. “SLS LUX is an oasis of ultimate luxury and features the very best of everything Miami has to offer – world-class art, elegant design, expertly crafted food – all set within a buzzing, culture-rich neighborhood.”
The extraordinary Arquitectonica designed, 57-story tower will feature the first LED façade by prominent lighting artist Ana Isabel Martinez. The project encompasses 450 sold-out luxury condominiums featuring private elevators and 70 guest rooms and suites, all expertly designed by the incomparable Yabu Pushelberg. Just steps away from Brickell City Centre, Miami’s newest and most extravagant shopping and lifestyle destination, SLS LUX Brickell offers residents and guests the ultimate access to an oasis of exclusive privileges.
The property will feature premier culinary offerings with celebrity Chef Katsuya Uechi’s second Katsuya location in Miami and fourteenth internationally. Katsuya, set to open on June 18th, brings the finest design together with the most exquisitely prepared Japanese cuisine. Interiors by Yabu Pushelberg with dramatic lighting and sculptural seating set the tone for a romantic evening, a special celebration, or an impromptu gathering. Accommodating nearly 180 diners, the 6,537-square foot expertly composed space features a private dining room for 10-12 diners that can also be divided into two separate rooms. The restaurant will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and offer many of Katsuya’s signature favorites along with new items created especially for the location.
SLS LUX Brickell will also debut S Bar, a sexy, sultry and glamorous concept that takes lounge life to all new heights of enjoyment. Situated next door to Katsuya and opening simultaneously on June 18th, Sbar boasts a 2,535 square foot space that will seat 85, striking the perfect balance between cultured sophistication and raw elegance. The vibe will be casual and the style bohemian chic with an urban edge. Live jazz, innovative cocktails, and a tempting array of lite bites will make S Bar the perfect place to meet up with friends any day of the week for an intimate tête-à-tête or an all-night party. Together, these venues are poised to become a destination for guests and locals alike.
