Miller Construction Company, a statewide, privately-held construction firm, has completed a 199,643-square-foot warehouse for Seagis Property Group just outside Fort Lauderdale’s Port Everglades. The building will serve the area efficiently with convenient import and export capabilities.
Located at 1700 Eller Drive in Hollywood, Florida, the warehouse provides distribution, logistics and e-commerce tenants statewide reach with access to Florida’s Turnpike, I-95, and I-595. The load bearing, tilt-wall structure was delivered in January 2024.
“We are excited to have brought this state-of-the-art industrial space to the market in partnership with our client Seagis Property Group,” said Brian Sudduth, President of Miller Construction. “Having the opportunity to support a major South Florida hub like Port Everglades is important for our community.”
The building is equipped with standard 54-foot by 50-foot bays, a 60-foot speed bay and 36-foot clear-height ceilings. The project also included two spec office spaces made available to tenants for immediate occupation.
During preconstruction, Miller’s team was brought in to assess the land and recommended increasing the structure’s bearing capacity with the use of Controlled Modulus Columns, also known as rigid inclusions. This helped support the structure and did not delay construction.
The project team included Ware Malcomb Architects, Puga & Associates, Inc. (MEP), DDA Engineers (structural) and Langan Engineering (civil).
