This multi-million dollar project will expand CS Square by 6,500-SQM, with the addition of a Woolworths supermarket, a large format discount store, a car wash as well as more than 10 specialty stores and expanded amenities with new parents’ room.
The redevelopment will also include enhancing pedestrian access near Aldi and additional car parking spaces which will be located on a vacant land north of CS Square.
“The CS Square development will strengthen the position of the Centre through an additional diversified retail mix while delivering to customers’ convenience and greater supermarket choice.
“The project will stimulate the local economy by boosting employment and creating further opportunities for retailers in one of Melbourne’s growing population corridors,” Lendlease’s Head of Retail Gary Horwitz said.
