A year ago, SLS Lux Brickell had just reached the 33rd floor of construction. Now, the 58 story condominium rises over the surrounding buildings including Brickell City Centre and the recently opened Brickell Heights. 

Construction is still progressing on the building as both cranes have been removed from the site since we last looked in March.

There are only three more floors left for the balconies to be installed and the amenities deck is coming along.

Construction is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

This Was Brickell In 2014 In Timelapse

Much has changed in Brickell in only three years. Brickell City Centre was still under construction and months aways from the East Hotel topping out. Nine Mary Brickell Village was also still under construction. Brickell Heights had just started ground breaking on its two towers and is now close to opening. SLS Lux Brickell had not started construction and was still being used as a parking lot. Solitair Brickell was also months away from demolishing the parking ramp and starting construction on SW 8th St.
