Port Central

Port Central is a shopping mall in Port Macquarie, a city in New South Wales, Australia. It is located on Horton and Hay Streets of the city centre. It has two levels and roughly over 100 shops and two car parks (parking lots).

History[edit]

Port Central was created in the 1990s as a place to store large shops. The mall was named Port Central after the colloquial ‘Port’ (refers to the city name) and ‘Central’ as many shopping centres on the Mid North Coast have central in their name, such as Coffs Central in Coffs Harbour and (later built) Kempsey Central in Kempsey and Taree Central in Taree. It was an addition from Settlement City which already was in the city. It became accessible to wheelchairs in later expansion, adding escalators and lifts

Transportation Access[edit]

It is accessible by automobile and by some public transport such as Uber, taxis and coaches. It is also accesible by walking, biking and by ferry (walking required).

Ferry[edit]

A ferry to Settlement Point has been founded to allow long distances (like Hastings River Drive) to cross. The suburb has over 500 inhabitants, a boat shed, a café, a playground, a campground and a ferry to the North Shore.
