Now part of the permanent collection at Scots College, his alma mater, this work reflects Harry's enduring legacy as one of Australia's most influential and successful business figures.
Harry “High Rise Harry” Triguboff is the founder and Chief Executive of Meriton Apartments, Australia’s largest apartment developer. From humble beginnings as a taxi driver to becoming a real estate mogul, Harry's belief in the personal touch and avoidance of debt has driven Meriton’s success and financial stability. His approach has made Meriton one of the most financially secure private companies in the country.
Beyond his business achievements, Harry is a generous philanthropist, having contributed to numerous causes. He is the first person to win Australia’s Property Person of the Year award twice, a testament to his significant impact on the property industry.
This bust honors Harry's vision, work ethic, and the personal values that have shaped his career and legacy.
