PARKE MILLER
EVP
Lincoln Property Co.
OC Base: Irvine

Local Portfolio:
7.1 million square feet

BIO: Leads Dallas-based landlord’s OC division. Notable holdings include Flight office development on former Tustin Marine base. Creating OC’s first ground-up creative office project earned his Business Journal’s nod for Businessperson of the Year in 2020, for the real estate sector.

NOTABLE: Frequent partner with coworking companies at its properties. Regarding sector headwinds, Miller said while “just like in retail, there very well may be bankruptcies and/or closures. And just like in retail, great locations and great properties will be fine long term, even if there are painful impacts in the short term.”

QUOTABLE: “High-rise office projects were going out of vogue before the pandemic, and that’s only accelerated in the past year,” he said in April.
