Greensborough Plaza

Known to some locals as “Greensy”, the centre has an extensive range of majors and mini-majors including Coles, Aldi, Kmart, Target, Chemist Warehouse, JB Hi-Fi, The Reject Shop, Rebel Sport, Anytime Fitness and over 170 specialty stores.

[citation needed] Former major tenants in the centre over the years have included: Waltons department store, Stan Cash, RM Williams, McEwans, Venture, Jewel Food Barn, Franklins No Frills, Dick Smith and World 4 Kids.

Harvey Norman left the centre in 2015, with a much larger JB Hi-Fi store opening in its place later that year.

[citation needed] In late 2015, a new kids’ precinct opened on level 2, near the Main Street entrance to the centre.

[citation needed] In late 2016, a new casual dining precinct opened on Level 3 near the Hoyts cinema complex.

A new Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop opened near the entrance, in the old ticket box space.

[8][9][10] The situation between tenants and the centre managers continued to escalate, until a merchant group was formed in March 1998 to represent affected retailers in discussions with Lendlease.

[12] Unlisted Lendlease managed trust, the Australian Prime Property Fund was the other joint owner during this period.

[12] In 2000, MLC sold its stake in Greensborough to SAS Trustee Corporation (State Super), in a $80 million deal.

[17] Greensborough Plaza provides parking for around 2815 vehicles and is serviced by trains, 10 bus routes and taxis.

The stop for bus route 293 can be reached by a 200-metre walk north east from the plaza along Main Street.
