They only new of a gym and pizza joint. The little shopping area across the road from the under construction Coles looks quite good. I would say another 10 - 15 shops and the chemist should bring the traffic through.

Cheers OOA There will actually also be IGA + 10 shops down Foley's road at the back of Brimbank Gardens as well (connected to the Central Park and Skyline estates http://www.commercialrealestate.com.au/317070). We certainly won't be short of shopping opportunities. I'm hoping for a indoor pool with that gym or of one in the area, nearest is Sunshine I think. I'm waiting to see the smaller retail in Brimbank Gardens itself, where the old sales office used to be. I don't know how it will survive though with all the competition - a doctors/dentist would be ideal with all the children in the area.

At the main entrance to Brimbank Gardens near the golf course there is a Real Estate sign saying "a healty you coming soon" I have a feeling that this might be a medical centre (dentist, physio) just a guess. I found some more info regarding the indoor sports centre http://www.commercialrealestate.com.au/368616 they haven't starting construction of it yet. I qlso noticed a council permit sign outside chemist wharehouse to run 3 restraunants.

I qlso noticed a council permit sign outside chemist wharehouse to run 3 restraunants. I thought that was back a bit further at the industrial estate and it referred to the gym everyone is talking about (it mentions On the corner of Mt Derrimut Road and Foleys Road)? I don't think there is any room for what they are planning in the estate itself. I think they have started, as I can see the car wash now, and they plan to be open 'early 2010'? Restaurants would be okay, but I'm worried about their profitability. What I'd really like is a fuel station.

The council permits say restaurants but they would more then likely be take away shops or cafes, they will be quite busy when all the factories open up in the industrial estate's there is also going to be an apprenticship school being built on Foley's road so they will get customers from them. I think the gym is going to be in the same set of shops as the chemist wharehouse, but sign for a "healthy you coming soon" is right next to the golf course round about, I have a feeling they will build a medical centre there. Since there is a Coles opening I reckon they will open a Shell Coles Express servo close by hopefully anyway would like a servo around.

That's my feeling too. If and when the factories recover and we can put people in the, the shops will do very well. But with so many empty factories right now, I'm not sure when that will be. How did you learn about the apprenticeship school? That would be a real bonus for the area.

No reason why they shouldn't I don't even know where the nearest one is other than St. Albans. They could probably make good money treating the unhealthy people as they get injured trying to be fit at the gym... Quote: Since there is a Coles opening I reckon they will open a Shell Coles Express servo close by hopefully anyway would like a servo around. We need a bit of competition or else they will up the prices. Maybe the IGA will also have a fuel station, but considering BP is down the road again, it may not have enough customers. Re: Brimbank Gardens, Derrimut VIC 98Dec 01, 2009 7:51 pm yes, I saw the sign for the apprenticeship centre close to the chemist warehouse. Isn't there a pool on Robinson's Rd, on the right hand side if you are heading north towards Ballarat Rd. I have seen the A-Frame advertising swimming lessons as we were moving our belongings from King Storage. I think the entrance is close to the small car yard. I think maybe a restaurant such as La Porchetta might be successful there. Cheap & cheerful, good for families etc. Has anyone eaten at the Golf Course, I see they advertise out the front. I think they should do "move in" meals to give people a sample and get the name out there. I was surprised how close Brimbank Shopping Centre is, maybe 3kms max.

I have to visit that sometime. Looks like it is doing good business, plenty of cars of the front, which will also be good for neighbouring businesses. Quote: Isn't there a pool on Robinson's Rd, I think the entrance is close to the small car yard. Mainly residential area, so not sure how they can fit a commercial pool in. Can anyone else confirm? There is a pool sale place on Westwood nothing to indicate a commercial pool. I do vaguely remember an sign for swimming lessons too, but I thought it referred to Caroline Springs? Quote: I think maybe a restaurant such as La Porchetta might be successful there. Cheap & cheerful, good for families etc. La Porchetta is alright, hopefully a good Vietnamese place - cheap and healthy meals. Hmmmm... I can just imagine the pho smells now... If anyone one wants probably the best Bun Bo Hue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%BAn_b ... u%E1%BA%BF) this side of the city I'd recommend Song Huong in St. Albans. Quote: Has anyone eaten at the Golf Course, I see they advertise out the front. I think they should do "move in" meals to give people a sample and get the name out there. I've been looking at that, not bad pricing but seems so secretive - I guess I've always felt that way about golf courses/health spas. hehe. Anyone know of a good video store? I thought there was a video store at Burnside, but apparently that's died. I am going to Taylors Lakes Video Busters, but difficult to return videos there.

Vietnamese food is not that far away either Sunshine or St Albans. I don't think there is enough customer to sustain business. A fish n chips might work. joeygbh Anyone know of a good video store?

There's the one at Delahey village, I have a card there but haven't borrow anything for ages.
