Channel Court Shopping Centre

Channel Court is a sub regional shopping centre located on the Channel Highway, Kingston, Tasmania. For many years the shopping centre was considered very small and inadequate to the needs of the local population. However, since being Purchased by the Behrakis Group in June of 2004 the centre has undergone a complete transformation. Tasmania's largest Big W was opened at the shopping centre on April 5, 2006, and it is planned that by 2009 Channel court will be one of the largest shopping Centres in Tasmania.

Extensive redevelopment took place through 2011 and 2012, and is still in progress, with plans for a new full-sized Woolworths store, cinema complex and foodcourt.

Famous quotes containing the words channel, court, shopping and/or centre:

    Wherever there is a channel for water, there is a road for the canoe.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Of all things in life, Mrs. Lee held this kind of court-service in contempt, for she was something more than republican—a little communistic at heart, and her only serious complaint of the President and his wife was that they undertook to have a court and to ape monarchy. She had no notion of admitting social superiority in any one, President or Prince, and to be suddenly converted into a lady-in-waiting to a small German Grand-Duchess, was a terrible blow.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    The new shopping malls make possible the synthesis of all consumer activities, not least of which are shopping, flirting with objects, idle wandering, and all the permutations of these.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Go anywhere in England where there are natural, wholesome, contented, and really nice English people; and what do you always find? That the stables are the real centre of the household.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
