I was in grade 6 when it opened - the glass lifts were such a novelty. And I spent so much pocket money at Brashs and the Collins book shop.

If only it was still like this, it’s such a dead ghost town now

after school worked at coles as a bag packer and trolley kid while it was being built the coles car park was gravel and it was a bitch lol

Working at Jewell's was my first job

Better back then less Karens with trolley rage

I go there sometimes they need a bit of refurbishment and they also need to add a Woolworths inside and Big W to replace Target there in the future

Very cool

Much appreciated.

Ohhhh this is so amazing. Wish we could go back in time and shop like that again

Omg thats mr Allen he was my geography teacher

lol.. I haven't to kno none..says henry.. on Ramsey St. I 💱)👍

It looks so different!

What a joy to see it all again in vivid colour. You can practically smell Darrell Lea in every frame. Bizarre how many long forgotten childhood memories came flying back in only 2 minutes - pointless memories & inconsequential details lodged in my brain until now. Thank you for this massive nostalgia trip.

wow. that brings back memories. I remember when it open too as a kid. I especially remember the "futuristic" glass lifts. In fact i remember all the stores in the clip and the levels they were situated without fault. We used to hand out during school holidays and run-around having fun ...it was the best!! Thanks a million for the video. (has is changed much?.........I see our gorgeous Greensborough Swimming Pool has been replaced by a monstrous car park and indoor pool building yuk and so sad!)

Does anyone remember what the menswaer store at the front entrance was called?

Nice share.. thank you 👏

One QANTAS SUPER G PR Stunt & not another QF aircraft ever at Essendon. QF didn't exist in the mind of Victorians.

I have many memories of standing there on the balcony admiring the Electras and the Viscounts back in the 60s Much later, in the 90s I gained a commercial pilots license and flew into and out of Essendon many times. So many memories. I parked my Piper Warrior in the exact spot I boarded a Viscount 700 TAA for a school trip to CANBERRA in 1967

this vibe is strange to say the least

wow, that's hilarious, I had a casual after school job at Waltons and Coles in 78....saw a lot of films in those cinemas

Any photos of the old twin cinema??

The old school barber pole out the front of the menswear store near the main St entrance. A few shops up was this cafe, orange decor, American diner vibe, stools out the front. The staff would wear these well ironed, pink and white uniforms. My mum would order a cappuccino and have a smoke there in the early 80s

This place was skateboard heaven for me and my mates back then. Just before it opened we managed to get inside and skateboard about the place before being chased of by the 'bloke'. When I was sixteen I got an after school job in the pharmacy on the ground floor sweeping up and stacking shelves. Had a crush on all the hot shop assistants that worked there. Friday nights just used to hang around with all the other teenagers on the top floor by K-Mart. Not been there for over 30 years. Thanks for posting Chris

Now we have Blacks beating up the Local youth and Chinese buying up everything they can , Diversity rocks and Progress really improved the entire area . Greensborough your Winners

I remember the old elevators. I used to call them 'rocket ships'. Someone I know remembered that when Greensborough Shopping Centre opened, the design was touted as being ultramodern. There was lots of lime green everywhere. The escalators between the levels were touted as being ultramodern too. The centre stage got used for lots of different things. School holiday pantomimes and magic shows, celebrity appearances, concerts by local school bands and Christmas carols.

So different

Nice work Keep it up

I miss all the red brickwork

YOU MANIACS! YOU RUINED IT

It’s so different

Wow weird seeing how it is when it was first opened. Honestly looks really nice though. Funny how different the plaza is from when it opened to when I remember it in the early 2000s and then compared to now. Really shows the aesthetics of the eras

Greensy is really different then now

Well made.

Beautiful video , excellent work .
