Construction has started on the $67 million Moreton Lifestyle Centre in Rothwell, with the retail and lifestyle precinct set to bring new food, automotive, fitness and service offerings to the growing North Lakes–Redcliffe corridor.
Rothwell Lifestyle Centre Takes First Step
Work is officially underway on the Moreton Lifestyle Centre, a $67 million retail and lifestyle development at 463 Anzac Avenue, Rothwell.
A sod turn was held on 23 June 2026 to mark the start of construction, with developer CapPru joined by builder Deluca, project partners and stakeholders at the site.
The project will transform a 3.7-hectare site with frontage to Anzac Avenue and Buchanan Street into a new retail and lifestyle precinct for the City of Moreton Bay.
The development has already secured commitments from several tenants, including Banjo’s, BP, KFC and Automasters. Wellness gyms have also been named among the planned offerings.
New Tenants Planned for Moreton Lifestyle Centre
CapPru Managing Director Jarrad Haynes said the centre had been planned around the needs of a growing local population, with the North Lakes–Redcliffe corridor projected to gain an additional 77,000 residents by 2046.
He said the Moreton Lifestyle Centre would provide retail convenience, lifestyle services and employment opportunities close to home.
Interest from national retailers has also been linked to demand for a centre of its kind in Brisbane’s northern corridor. Further tenant commitments are expected to be announced later.
Leasing is being managed by Colliers and KD Special Projects, with negotiations continuing across several sectors. These include homemaker, fitness, automotive, electrical, pet care and outdoor recreation uses.
Construction Underway on 3.7-Hectare Site
Deluca is delivering construction of the Rothwell precinct for CapPru.
Deluca Managing Director Nic De Luca said the project would be a significant construction job for the area, with up to 120 people expected to be working on site once activity is fully underway.
Longer-term employment opportunities are also expected once the centre becomes operational, although a completion or opening date has not been provided.
The project forms part of continuing development activity in the broader Moreton Bay region, where population growth is shaping demand for additional retail and lifestyle services.
For Rothwell, the start of works marks a visible step forward for a prominent site on Anzac Avenue, with construction now moving the Moreton Lifestyle Centre from planning and tenant commitments into delivery.
