    Abandoned Greater Sydney Shopping Centre
    In this video we explore the Abandoned Kibbleplex Shopping Centre in Gosford (formerly Market Town).
    This shopping centre will be demolished eventually to make way for apartments.
    Here’s an article from 2015 before it was sold and abandoned:

    For anyone wondering, the address is about 127 Henry Parry Dr, Gosford, NSW. It's the huge abandoned structure right across the park (not Imperial Centre Gosford).

  • @adamcurrey6685

    Holy cow. I remember that place when it first opened. It was the shiny new place that everyone want to instead of the tired old dump that was the Imperial Centre. I think it was called MarketTown at the time. I had no idea it had been abandoned.

    I won’t gonna give my location due to living close to this, and it kinda hurts seeing a piece of my childhood be destroyed more and more with vandals who find it.

    Wow, I didn't have a clue what shopping centre this was until the outside shot. I used to live and work a few blocks away. I remember when it was a bit run down, but still open, then they brought in a large supermarket, Macca's, Wendy's etc and for a while it was doing great. Then I moved to a different area. I don't know what the catalyst for it to start going down hill, but in the end apparently it was just the newsagents in the centre, and he had to just close, couldn't sell the business.

    My mum worked there when it was first opened in 1979, she worked in Waltons, which was on most of the lower floor, so many memories of growing up in the area, Im still here now and its sad to see what grubs have done to the inside of it. We use to ride our skateboards down the bwndy walkway!! Moat of my christmas photos were done in there, It was calles Marketown, which is what most locals still call the building today!! I did notice last week more ferals have gotten in and graffitied the windows of oscars restaurant....its passed hands a couple of times over the last decade. There was talk of the library going in there, and newcastle uni also, but they are knocking down another of our old buildings up the road for their next central coast campus. We dont need any more apartment blocks and shit moving up here from Sydney, we dont have the infrastructure for it

    Looks like the car park has a similar design to the Whitehorse Plaza car park in Box Hill which was built in the early 1970s. It’s in Melbourne and is still doing really well today and it was also redeveloped between 1998 and 2000 with its interior being completely gutted/demolished and rebuilt. The centre itself there also shares a lot in common architecturally with the newer Box Hill shopping centre that was opened in 1987 and built by Centro.

    So many fond memories at this shopping centre as a child shopping with my Mum and Aunty. Love our big trips into town to go shopping and have lunch in the Walton’s cafeteria. I knew where it was before I saw the end 🥰 thank you for sharing. So sad it’s so trashed now 😞

    I love that you don't use the flashing logo in your intro any more because it used to trigger migraines for me. Thanks for changing it.
