History

Warriewood Square opened in 1981 and included over 30 stores. The centre included a Kmart, Coles and Franklins. In March 1996, the centre was bought by Centro Properties Group and rebranded Centro Warriewood.[2] In 1999 the centre was redeveloped and 55 new stores were added and new shaded parking was added.[3] Franklins closed in 2001 and was replaced by Woolworths. It was renamed back to Warriewood Square on 8 November 2014.[4]

Recent development

In 2015 Vicinity Centres began work on the $84 million redevelopment which extended Warriewood Square by 7,500m² and included a new multi-storey carpark.[5] The redevelopment was completed on 23 June 2016 and consists of:

• Aldi Supermarket
• Two mini majors - Rebel Sport (then known as Amart Sports) and Cotton On
• New look Kmart and an expanded Woolworths
• Around 35 new stores

As a result, Warriewood Square is the second largest shopping centre on the Northern Beaches with Westfield Warringah Mall being the largest.[6]
