A DA for the major redevelopment of Stockland Glendale has been submitted to Lake Macquarie Council. The $60 million expansion and redevelopment would add around 50 new specialty retailers and include a Coles expansion, an enclosed mall and a ‘‘boulevard restaurant precinct’’ with casual dining areas linking shops and a cinema. Lake Macquarie City Council is currently assessing the plan, which is expected before the Joint Regional Planning Panel soon.

 

Over the past 12 months Stockland has modified and re-worked its designs in response to feedback from customers, retailers, and Council. The most recent design modifications for the proposed redevelopment of Stockland Glendale include:

• Modifications to the dining precinct to incorporate a larger, more centrally located playground and more public space for customers to enjoy;

• Extra space for specialty stores at each end of the new mall to allow more retailers to join the centre;

• Improved layout for the proposed fresh food precinct to allow for greater circulation and enhanced connections between the dining precinct and the centre;
