It's quite exciting watching the build isn't it?!
We slabbed at the beginning of May and just had the top floor scaffolding removed with bottom room probably being done…

The community hub and plans for the retail area were lodged in May.
It looked quite substantial. However, as noted in the article I posted above, who is gong to…

Adding to that:
Stocklands won't be building the shopping centre by the looks of this Fin Review Article:
