Vicinity Centres opens the first stage of its long-awaited $240 million redevelopment of Morley Galleria, bringing a newly updated fashion mall to Perth shoppers after major plans were announced more than a decade ago. The opening marks the start of the centre’s staged revamp.
Outlet coverage focuses on the public-facing reopening and shopper turnout. PerthNow and The West Australian both lead with reports that thousands of shoppers flocked to the reopening, framing it as a major local retail event tied to the redevelopment budget and Vicinity Centres’ role. An additional outlet takes a more development-focused approach, highlighting the commencement of the first stage and the timeline since the original plans were announced, rather than foregrounding visitor numbers.
