Scentre Group and its joint venture partner Dexus Wholesale Property Fund today announced a $53 million redevelopment at Westfield Mt Druitt that will bring the community an unparalleled rooftop dining and leisure precinct and a carpark upgrade.
Westfield Mt Druitt’s new rooftop precinct will be home to 11 new restaurants and a large-scale entertainment offer, as well as indoor and outdoor green spaces for customers to enjoy with communal dining tables, a children’s play area and a stage for live entertainment.
The more than 6,500m2 rooftop precinct will connect with the existing roof of Westfield Mt Druitt, adjacent to the recently upgraded Hoyts cinema to create an integrated entertainment experience and the ultimate space for families, young couples and singles to dine, play and enjoy the indoor and outdoor oasis.
