Northland Shopping Centre is a major shopping centre in East Preston, approximately 11 km north of the Melbourne Central Business District in Victoria. It is the largest predominantly single-level shopping centre in Melbourne. It has more than 330 stores all spread on one floor but the cinemas, Timezone arcade and Pancake Parlour is on the top level.
Opening in 1966, Northland Shopping Centre was one of the first self-contained shopping centres in Melbourne. The shopping centre was built and owned by the Myer Emporium. The original shopping centre consisted of 3 malls radiating north, east and west from a centre stage area. It housed 73 tenants and 6 professional suites. Some of the original retailers included Myer, Coles New World Supermarket, Buckley and Nunn Department Store, McEwans, Woolworths Variety Store and Coles Variety Store. A feature of the shopping centre was the Northland Market located at the south-west end of the shopping centre.
In July 1983, the Myer Emporium sold the shopping centre to the Gandel Group of Companies. It is currently owned 50:50 by GPT and Novion Property Group.
Consisting principally of an extension to decide to the North Mall, was completed in December 1984, increasing the number of tenants to 99, with 6 professional suites. Super K-Mart (Hypermarket) and North Court added. The Super K-Mart was the first to be included in a region east of Australia.
Completed in October 1985, this extension was principally the extension of the pre-existing East Mall. It increased the number of tenants to 128. Fosseys, Franklins and East Court were added.
Completed in February 1986, increased the number of tenants by 13 to 141. This was principally the extension of the West Mall and included the addition of the West Court and retailers including McEwans and Toyworld.
Completed in December 1987, this was one of the biggest extensions increasing the number of tenants to 170 tenants and the number of professional suites to 7. It includes the addition of a new Food Court and the construction of the Hoyts cinema complex, the new Myer facade and the first multi-level car park at Northland.
