Shops on the Coles development site are already vacant or have posted notices that they are moving to other addresses. The newsagent will close on 15 January.
It appears that action on the site is planned soon. Perhaps in February 2020?
Here are some pictures of the cork tree taken today, 3 January 2020.
Work on the development is approaching completion and Coles is scheduled to open on 21 June. The developer promised to install signage for the historic Norwood Cork Tree, but we haven't received any notification about when signage will be provided. The cork tree and the river red gum dominate the car park, and no new trees have been planted to replace the large plane trees that provided some shade. Under the current care regime the cork tree is flourishing. We hope care will continue into the future. It is such a beautiful and unusual tree for this area.
its looking good! the rain will have helped.
