Founder of The Miller Group, the developer for Fairwinds Landing, Miller is guiding the development of the 111-acre project at Norfolk Southern’s Lambert’s Point Docks in Norfolk.
The $500 million development will transform the former docks into a marine logistics center supporting the growth of offshore wind, shipbuilding and intermodal transportation.
The project, a joint venture including The Miller Group, Balicore Construction and Fairlead, could create more than 200 local construction and engineering jobs. In 2023, Newport News Shipbuilding started production at a satellite campus at Fairwinds Landing. The Dominion Monitoring & Coordination Center, an offshore wind energy monitoring and coordination center, is expected to be completed at the site in September.
In July, Miller stepped down as CEO of Fairlead after 40 years of leading the engineering and manufacturing company and its earlier iteration, Earl Industries. Fairlead President Fred Pasquine became president and CEO. The majority owner of the company, Miller transitioned to Fairlead’s executive chairman.
Miller is a 1977 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy.
