One initial criticism of the centre is that unlike its rivals, the Blanchardstown Shopping Centre and The Square Tallaght, there is no supermarket (other than than a small section within Marks and Spencer). This has not dented the centre's popularity however.

In 2005 planning applications were made to further develop the site into a more all round destination. These plans include apartments and more leisure focused units located away from the main shopping centre.
