We
call
this
the
Discount
Myer.
Always
seems
to
be
a
lot
on
sale.
Is
it
a
little
like
the
Myer
in
the
apocalypse?
Yes.
But
don't
let
that
stop
you.
Built
on
the
site
of
the
old
migrant
centre,
and
very
close
to
the
1956
Olympic
village,
that
later
became
a
housing
commission
area.
I
have
been
told
the
young
Italian
and
Maltese
men
from
Reservoir
used
to
drive
into
this
area
for
regular
fights
with
the
local
housing
commission
tenants.
But
enough
history...
Conveniently
located
at
the
front
entrance
to
Northland,
Myer
Northland
feels
like
an
out
of
place
intersection
to
the
rest
of
the
shopping
centre.
One
exit
leads
to
the
chaos
of
the
food
court,
another
toward
the
supermarkets,
another
to
the
clothing
stores.
The
ground
floor
is
largely
used
as
a
thoroughfare
by
the
good
shoppers
of
Northland.
For
a
little
peace
and
quiet,
jump
on
the
escalator
and
visit
one
of
the
other
floors.
FUN!
I
saw
a
fight
out
the
front
here
once
between
a
customer
and
one
of
the
Myer
security.
It
seemed
personal,
so
I
stepped
in
before
things
got
out
of
control.
"Hey,
settle
down
guys,"
I
said
"is
it
really
worth
it?"
And
they
had
a
think
about
things
and
decided
it
wasn't.
The
entrances
all
have
security
alarm
bollards,
which
go
off
regularly
as
people
walk
through.
But
nothing
happens.
Their
function
appears
to
be
to
surprise
and
embarrass
innocent
customers,
who
awkwardly
stop
and
look
around
for
security
to
tackle
them.
As
it
becomes
clear
nobody
cares,
they
sheepishly
wander
off
toward
KFC.
Anyway,
this
aging
and
out
of
place
Myer
is
awesome
and
comes
thoroughly
recommended.
The
service
is
friendly,
the
prices
are
good.
The
escalators
usually
work.
Big
shout
out
to
the
ladies
at
the
service
counters,
smart,
well
turned
out,
and
friendly.
Covid
Safe?
Depends
what
ferals
and
bogans
are
using
it
as
a
throughway
between
the
$2
Shop
and
Maccas,
really.
Put
a
mask
on
and
tighten
the
straps
before
you
enter,
if
need
be,
hold
your
breath
as
you
pass
through.
In
fairness,
this
advice
applies
for
most
places
in
Northland.
If
you're
looking
for
the
filming
location
of
the
"better
luck
next
time
luv"
video,
exit
from
the
left,
turn
right
(POI
I
saw
a
dead
person
here
once),
then
right
again.
Look
out
for
the
clothing
alteration
store.
Anyway,
awesome
awesome
awesome
Myer.
Probably
the
best.
Should
be
on
your
bucket
list.
