Rockdale Plaza is a medium-sized shopping centre located in the suburb of Rockdale, a suburb in the south of Sydney. It is located on the Princes Highway.[1]

History

The original shopping centre known as Southside Plaza opened in 1963 on the current site. It had featured a Waltons department store (originally a Mark Foys, then McDowells), Woolworths Food Fair, Franklins supermarket, a Tenpin Bowling Centre and lots of speciality stores.[2] In the 1990s Southside Plaza was demolished and construction started on redeveloping the site. Rockdale Plaza opened in 1997 and featured Big W, Franklins, Woolworths and over 50 speciality stores. Waltons and the Tenpin Bowling Alley had not returned to the site and have closed. In 2013, Franklins closed its store and was replaced by Aldi which opened 16 October 2013.[3]
