Westpoint Blacktown

Westpoint Blacktown is a large shopping centre situated in Blacktown, Western Sydney, New South Wales, owned by Queensland Investment Corporation. It was recently renovated and expanded, making it one of the biggest shopping centres in Western Sydney. The centre serves as a major retail hub for the region.

Extensive refurbishments commenced in 2003 have taken several years to complete. The centre incorporates several key retail outlets: the three-floor Myer, Target, Big W, Coles Supermarkets, Aldi, and Woolworths supermarkets. The refurbishment incorporated an entertainment precinct, which incorporates a Hoyts 10 screen cinema, bowling alley and a video arcade. There is also an outdoor dining precinct and speciality stores.

The refurbishment was to be undertaken by Baulderstone Hornibrook Pty Ltd (BHPL). However BHPL and QIC became embroiled in legal proceedings regarding the payment of outstanding progress payments which BHPL claimed were owing to it. This court proceeding delayed construction. In October 2006, QIC terminated the contract with BHPL.

The centre incorporates a large multi-level car park. There is a taxi rank on level four. There is an underground bus station which provides a direct connection by bus services to surrounding suburbs. The main entrance on Level 3 is within short walking distance to Blacktown railway station and nearby alternate taxi ranks.
