strives to continue the legacy of founder and family patriarch, Architect José Milton, reflecting his entrepreneurial spirit, generosity, determination, fiscal responsibility, and love for South Florida with its rich cultural diversity, boundless potential, and ever-evolving skyline.
José Milton, a Cuban immigrant of Lebanese heritage, arrived in Miami with a dream, a brilliant mind for business, and a degree in Architecture from Universidad de La Habana. He leveraged his education and unwavering dedication to become a successful entrepreneur, developer and builder, and inspiring leader who loved South Florida, to him the most beautiful place on Earth.
Architect José Milton understood the value of education and commitment in a society free from government oppression. In addition to the many buildings and communities he developed, he left us with the José Milton Foundation and the wish that his legacy support programs and organizations in South Florida that improve quality of living, with a special focus on education, research, and healthcare.
