Content

The Woolworths at Kew Junction has acted as the solo major grocer for the area for many decades until recent years thanks to the opening of a nearby Coles. It’s prosperity has been closely linked to Kew Junction as a whole, and it’s redevelopment in 1985 was seen not only as a re-vitalisation of itself, but also seen as an opportunity for the whole area’s business. The file includes: Multiple newspaper articles, and a plan for the renovation of the Woolworths.
