Australian retail property group Westfield Retail Trust has begun work on the $330m redevelopment of the Westfield Fountain Gate shopping centre in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia.

The project will see the addition of new parallel malls which will be anchored by a Myers store and nearly 122 other stores to the retail centre.

The project has a completion date pencilled in for late 2012.
