  Chadstone Shopping Centre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chadstone Shopping Centre in Malvern East, Victoria, Australia is one of the largest shopping malls in the southern hemisphere, with nearly four hundred stores.
The original shopping centre consisted of a single mall-way with Myer at the southern end and a Target department store located at the northern end.
However, Chadstone is currently (as of December 21, 2005) undertaking a AUD$100 million upgrade of its own, with the Gandel Group planning to extend Chadstone's lettable area to 170,000 square metres, which will once again make Chadstone the largest shopping centre in Australia.
