Coronation Property has been featured in Shopping Centre News, exploring the changing role of retail within mixed-use precincts and how a long-term approach to placemaking can create stronger, more connected communities.
Featuring insights from Head of Retail Joanna Russell, Head of Urban Transformations Aras Labutis and General Manager of Nation Charlotte Dillon, the article explores how retail is considered well before the precinct opens. From dining and everyday convenience to wellness and services, each offering is thoughtfully curated around the needs of the local community and its role within the wider precinct.
As Joanna explains, "We believe retail should be viewed as community infrastructure in the same way that parks, public spaces and transport are."
Mason & Main in Merrylands demonstrates this approach in action, bringing together established and emerging operators, including local dining favourite Iftar and Western Sydney’s first One Playground.
The feature also looks at how this strategy is shaping our growing Sydney portfolio, including Precinct 75, Archer & Albert, Erskineville Village, Waterloo and St Leonards, as we continue to create destinations that evolve with communities.
