HARLEY MILLER

CEO, MILLER CONSTRUCTION, FORT LAUDERDALE

Hospitals for Holy Cross, a flight simulator training facility for Airbus, a LEED certification renovation for Republic Services, next generation industrial spaces for logistics companies, showrooms for City Furniture and auto stores for AutoNation and Holman Motorcars — these are just some of the projects over the years by Miller Construction, perhaps best known for its multimillion-dollar renovation and expansion of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, which Associated Builders & Contractors named Project of the Year in 2014.

In 1973, Miller founded the design-build and construction firm with his brother Thomas, who is chairman. Miller, a University of Florida graduate with a degree in building construction, is former president of the Construction Association of South Florida. The Miller brothers were 2014 UF Construction Hall of Fame honorees.

The company has completed more than 500 commercial projects in South Florida, including office buildings, industrial, manufacturing and distribution, retail, health care, higher education, hospitality and multi-family developments. In 2020, Miller Construction finished construction on its own headquarters and training center, a $3.5-million investment, and in 2021 it opened a Central Florida office.
