    Inner Loop professionals, Houston-area empty-nesters, and those who love the lock-and-leave lifestyle can look forward to an elevated option for luxe living. Houston-based commercial real estate firm Satya and its CEO Sunny Bathija have announced on The St. Regis Residences, Houston, a new high-rise condominium development.

    Satya is partnering with powerhouse global brand Marriott International on the project. This 35-story condo marks the first, exclusive development in Texas for the St. Regis brand, a luxury residential offshoot of Marriott.

    The St. Regis Residences, Houston will loom over some four acres of prime real estate in Asbury Place, offering unobstructed views of River Oaks, Memorial Park, Buffalo Bayou, and downtown.

    Groundbreaking is expected some time in 2025, with an expected completion date around Q4 in 2027. Green space enthusiasts will delight in private owner access to the new Buffalo Bayou Trail, which will run along the development’s south side. For some visual perspective, the project will be adjacent to River Oaks and Lazy Lane Boulevard — an enviable address, indeed — and will technically be walking distance from the cherished Bayou Bend Collection and Gardens and even Memorial Park.

    As one would imagine, owners will enjoy myriad perks from St. Regis brand’s global membership privileges. Those include butler services to attend to virtually any need, a full-time concierge, doorman, and valet parking, per press materials.

    Curated amenities include a pool, fitness center and movement studio, wellness services, a cognac room with wine storage, a golf simulator (perfect for practice before hitting Memorial Park), a kid’s activity center, pet spa for pampering, and boardroom and business center for the ideal work-from-home situation in arguably Houston’s most prestigious residential quadrant.

    “We are proud to collaborate with Marriott International to launch The St. Regis Residences, Houston,” said Satya CEO Bathija in a statement. “The St. Regis brand is known globally for its unrivaled level of luxury, its innovation and commitment to impeccable service. I have had the privilege of ownership at the Marriott’s branded residences in Sunny Isles Beach Miami and am excited to share the legendary St. Regis lifestyle with fellow Texans.”

    Credit goes to Bathija for making a bold claim on some of the last remaining Tier 1 Inner Loop land. Those familiar with commercial and residential real estate will no doubt recognize Satya as the firm worth more than $500 million and behind tony properties such as The Sophie at Bayou Bend, Giorgetti Houston, Westmore, Hyatt Place and Hyatt House Houston Medical Center.

    As CultureMap reported, Satya has ventured outside Greater Houston to launch the luxe Tiara on the Beach coast-facing condominiums in Galveston. But for now, Bathija’s focus is back to bringing luxury living to the Inner Loop — with a global brand partner.

    “The St. Regis Residences, Houston represent the best address in the heart of the coveted River Oaks community,” said Sarah Khalifa, VP, Mixed-Use Development, Marriott International, in press materials. “Bringing St. Regis Residences to Houston has always been a strategic priority for our company, and working with Satya has been the perfect fit as a prominent local developer—coupled with Sunny Bathija’s experience as an existing Residence Owner in our portfolio. His commitment to the lifestyle we offer will undoubtedly pull through in this iconic project.”

    Sugar Land's first new apartment complex in 13 years breaks ground

    Pearl Lake Pointe is a 376-unit luxury apartment complex slated for early summer 2027 in Sugar Land.

    Sugar Land is welcoming its first new apartment development in more than a decade. Pearl Lake Pointe, a 376-unit luxury community from developers Morgan and Carlyle, is underway at 16435 Creekbend Drive.

    Construction began in November, with an official groundbreaking held this week. “The groundbreaking of Pearl Lake Pointe marks an exciting new chapter for the Lake Pointe peninsula,” Sugar Land Mayor Carol K. McCutcheon said in a statement. “After years of planning and collaboration with Morgan, this project delivers much-needed, high-quality multifamily housing and strengthens our long-term vision for a vibrant, connected district. This milestone will help drive continued reinvestment and momentum throughout Lake Pointe and across Sugar Land.”

    Set across 6.46 acres, the five-story complex will feature five live-work units, a six-story parking garage, and 9,940 square feet of commercial office space. Fitness centers, a resort-inspired pool, a golf simulator, a sky lounge, and a cafe are among the planned amenities.

    Inside the residences, features include open-concept floor plans, quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances, washers and dryers, and balconies in select units.

    “Pearl Lake Pointe is a unique opportunity to elevate the living experience and set a new benchmark for luxury in Sugar Land,” Kase Pappert, Morgan senior development manager, said. “We are grateful for the City’s partnership and look forward to helping re-energize the Lake Pointe peninsula with a welcoming community that feels like home and connects residents to the amenities right outside their door.”

    Roughly 20 miles from downtown Houston, the site has views of Brooks Lake and is adjacent to the former Fluor corporate campus currently being transformed into the Lake Pointe Green mixed-use development.

    The first Pearl Lake Pointe units are slated for delivery in early summer 2027. Morgan and Carlyle will own and manage the community, with project financing provided by Texas Capital Bank.

    “With Pearl Lake Pointe, Carlyle and Morgan are redefining multifamily living and adding meaningful momentum to address the demand for high-quality housing in the Sugar Land submarket,” said Adam Buchwald, Carlyle managing director and partner. “Partnering with Morgan — an accomplished developer with a strong track record — makes this project even more exciting, and Pearl Lake Pointe is a standout addition to Carlyle’s portfolio of high-quality multifamily developments.”
