Top Ryde Shopping Centre to Close


With nearby shopping centre Top Ryde about to close, Rhodes is sure to see a boost in customers. Top Ryde shopping centre is a shadow of its former glory as on of the first shopping centres in NSW way back in the 50's. To be restored it is closing for a redevelopment that will take a few years. They will undoubtedly loose their customers immediately after closing, if not before.


Nearby centres will benefit in the short term, and Top Ryde will struggle to win back those customers when they re-open. Rhodes shopping centre is sure to benefit those who live in the southern part of the Ryde area.


Why these customers have not already discovered Rhodes is a mystery. Top Ryde has been a dump for years, and offers nothing to their customers or tenants alike. On the other hand Rhodes is a fantastic centre, that has a local feel and isn't too busy.
