Sydney , in the suburb of Rouse Hill. The centre is part of a larger development proposal for the Rouse Hill Regional Centre.Unlike many shopping centres in Australia, Rouse Hill Town Centre is a true town centre with streets, a Town Square, outdoor dining and a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces. The centre features high ceilings and has no doors between indoor and outdoor sections. The centre is divided into four "quadrants". Each quadrant has its own distinct range of stores, and all four quadrants will meet at an area known as the Town Square. From the Town Square the Main Street and Civic Way branch out to separate the four quadrants. Its main competitors are
Castle Towers andWestpoint Blacktown both about 10km away.Majors
