History

Rhodes Shopping Centre opened on 2 December 2004 as part of the $1.2 billion Rhodes Waterside development, which also includes medium density residential blocks and an office building as part of the shopping centre. The centre was developed by the Walker Corporation who also previously developed Broadway Shopping Centre.

Rhodes Shopping Centre was built on the former Berger Paints factory site. Berger Paints operated on the site from 1916 until 1986 and was taken over by Orica who operated on the site until 1987. [3] The site sat vacant since and has undergone remediation. [4]

Rhodes Shopping Centre featured IKEA, Coles, Bi-Lo and Reading Cinemas. [5] [6] [7] [8]

In December 2006 Walker Corporation put the centre up for sale which was acquired by Mirvac in January 2007, and is now owned and operated by Mirvac. [9] [10] [11]

In 2007 Bi-Lo closed down and was replaced by Target.

Target left the centre in early 2021 and was replaced by Kmart which opened later that year. [12]
