Westfield Shopping Town Indooroopilly, Brisbane, Queensland from 1988

This is a ad for Westfield Shopping Town Indooroopilly. When it was only two levels and had a nice big water fountain out side of myer. This is the section during the 3rd floor addition were the fire started in the late 1990's they added the 3rd floor. Now it is not even a Westfield Shopping centre anymore, which sucks. Love the technology shown in the ad, very funning. This is from Channel 0 Brisbane 1988.

    The first time I've seen this ad in 32 years! Fun fact: The 4"/12cm luggable TV you see at 0:10 is probably one foot long and is as heavy as a brick. The viewing angle has done wonders for its appearance. Don't get me started on computers that used a compact cassette for storage and a television for the screen...

    Bring back the fountain I say! You're right, the managers/owners since Westfield sold their half haven't been the best - Gandel and Lend Lease. Funding has stalled for a large scale expansion and I'd say this will make it a bargain to sell in coming years as its development won't have kept pace.

    I agree-Toowong store hasn't been renovated in lieu of moving elsewhere-it's in a Rip Van Winkle stage. One of DJ's smallest stores-it's time for a move. The management of Toowong Village went downhill when Gordon Fu's company bought it-long term tenants left-feel of the centre changed & generally not as well kept compared with 80's/90's when it was marketed as an upmarket centre "shopping in the best of circles". Toowong DJs is a Grid 4 store along with Toombul & Garden C-needs an increase.

    What overseas store wants a Brisbane flagship? I'd simply like a full-line DJs there of a higher grid than Toowong (which would close).

    Yeah, what a developers' bargain that place is, talk about destroying asset value. Looks very sub-regional and dated, to think it used to boast 2 dept stores. And now Centro go cap in hand to Mark McInnes to desperately keep DJs there, sad! No Barry Bull & Toombul Music either. Brisbane needs growth in shopping centres, not downgrades, we need an inner and outer ring of centres to exist. The population is there to begin to replicate how centres have developed in Syd & Mel.
