History
Carlingford Court opened in 1965 as the Village Centre on a former orchard and nursery site. The centre featured Farmers (rebranded to Grace Bros in 1984 and Myer in 2004), Franklins and around 50 stores. In the 1970s, the centre went a redevelopment with the addition of Venture, Best & Less and a second level. It was subsequently renamed Carlingford Court.{{Cite web|url=http://cwpsmyplace.weebly.com/history-of-carlingford.html|title=History of Carlingford|website=cwpsmyplace.weebly.com|access-date=2016-05-28}}
In 1983 Lendlease took ownership of the centre until July 1996 when GPT Group acquired the centre. The centre was redeveloped in 1987 and 1989 which added around 40 stores and a food court.{{Cite web|title=Then and now in photos|url=http://cwpsmyplace.weebly.com/then-and-now-in-photos.html|access-date=2020-10-20|website="My Place"|language=en}} Venture closed in the early 1990s and was replaced by Target. In 1998 Woolworths was refurbished. In 2000, a $40 million upgrade saw the shopping centre gain a Coles supermarket (replacing a Franklins), new food court (including the relocation of McDonald's and KFC) and 3,000 m2 of floor space.{{cite news|title=Work begins on $40m Carlingford upgrade|work=Inside Retailing|date=2000-03-06|publisher=Ian Huntley Pty Ltd}}{{Cite web|title=CARLINGFORD COURT SHOPPING CENTRE Project in Carlingford North, NSW - Cordell Connect|url=https://www.cordellconnect.com.au/public/project/ProjectDetails.aspx?uid=453743|access-date=2020-10-21|website=www.cordellconnect.com.au}}
On 31 March 2006, the 8,000 m2 Myer store closed down. The store was replaced by Fitness First on the top floor and Target (which relocated from its space on the other side of the centre) on the first two levels making it the only store in Sydney to be two stories.{{Cite web|title=CARLINGFORD COURT - TARGET Project in Carlingford North, NSW - Cordell Connect|url=https://www.cordellconnect.com.au/public/project/ProjectDetails.aspx?uid=632642|access-date=2020-10-21|website=www.cordellconnect.com.au}} The store opened in November 2006.
