[3] It is estimated that over the past 50 years, Meriton has built more than 65,000 residential apartments on the east coast of Australia.

On 13 November 2013, Meriton celebrated its 50th anniversary with a party on Sydney Harbour for more than 300 current and former employees, friends, family and dignitaries from the political and business world.

In recent years, Meriton has shifted focus to providing retail, recreational and childcare facilities alongside residential and serviced apartments.

Allegedly, the contractor Triguboff hired let him down, so he decided to complete the job himself and, as a result, he developed a taste for construction.

In 1969, he completed a development of 18 apartments on Meriton Street, Gladesville, which gave rise to the company name.

After floating Meriton on the Australian Securities Exchange in 1969, Triguboff bought back all the company's shares in 1973.
