It is anchored by a Coles and Aldi and is home to more than 40 specialty stores, including TerryWhite Chemmart, Australia Post, Nextra Newsagency and BWS. The building comprises four levels; the two lower levels are undercover car parking, the third level is retail (which is at street level with Lutwyche Road) and the fourth level is home to a medical precinct and office suites.

Construction is currently underway in the $55 million refurbishment of Lutwyche City and the next stage is due for completion in October 2018. A third supermarket, Woolworths, will open in the centre in 2019.

History

The centre, built by Ferro Constructions, was opened in 1974 and was originally anchored by Coles and Barry and Roberts department store. Before Centro acquired the centre in 2001, it was owned by Leda Property Group. The centre was refurbished in the late 1980s and again in 2003 after being acquired by Centro, adding an extension for Crazy Clark's and new Diner's Life food court. A Fresh Life fresh food mall was added and general mall reconfiguration occurred as well as part of this refurbishment.

More recently, as part of the current redevelopment, new travelators were installed in the centre and a new cafe court was opened. The redevelopment will be completed in 2019 by current owners, Abacus Property Group, who purchased Lutwyche City in 2015.
