Crown Group secure ALDI as Eastlakes Shopping Centre tenant

Crown Group has secured ALDI as a tenant of its Eastlakes Live residential precinct which it is developing on the Eastlakes Shopping Centre site.

The supermarket will re-open with nearly 20% more retail space and a fresh new look when stage one nears completion.

The new Eastlakes Live lifestyle precinct will offer more than 500 luxury apartments and an array of new retail and dining offerings that will transform the area into a destination in itself.

Stage one of Eastlakes Live by Crown Group was launched in May 2018.

Construction is underway on stage one, which will comprise three buildings with a total 133 one, two and three-bedroom apartments and four penthouses.

It will also have a 2800 sqm retail area below offering 12 outlets including the new ALDI store, a second supermarket, bakery, butcher and chemist.

Residents will have access to sophisticated resort-style health and fitness facilities including a 25 m swimming pool and gym. They will also have a rooftop lounge, barbeque facilities, function room and landscaped gardens.

Crown Group Chief Operating Officer Pierre Abrahamse said having a new, bigger ALDI supermarket was a major milestone in creating the new town centre, which would become a drawcard attraction for residents.

Amended plans for Eastlakes Live stage two are pending council approval and include 399 new apartments across five buildings and a concept for a new town centre, with a retail and restaurant precinct that includes a full-line supermarket and eat street offering various restaurant and dining options.

Apartments are for sale from $680,000 to $1,755,000.
