The Miller Brothers Cotton Warehouse is a historic cotton warehouse at 705 Gervais St. in Columbia, South Carolina. It is a low-profile single-story brick building, set at an angle to the street, in a city district historically occupied by many similar buildings. Built in 1872, its orientation is due to the presence of railroad tracks (no longer extant) on either side of the parcel. Its first major owners were the Miller Brothers, dealers in cotton; it has been used to house foodstuffs and electrical equipment in its long history of use.[2]
