South Beach is a nightclub with after hours located in Houston, Texas within the Neartown area which opened in 2001 on the former site of Club Heaven. The 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) dance club located at 810 Pacific Street was popular among the city's gay community.[1] Among South Beach’s many features was a full-color water-cooled matrix laser light show utilizing Kryogen Ifex liquid ice jets that spray out a thick cloud of liquid Ice. The ice jets had the ability to reduce the temperature of the club by 20 °F (−7 °C) in a few seconds.[2]
South Beach is owned by Charles Armstrong. Charles Armstrong also owns JR's Bar & Grill, and formerly owned Meteor Urban Lounge, and Montrose Mining Company before they closed.[3]
