History.
Plans to develop a shopping centre in the suburb were announced in the late 1970s, with the $10.8 million development drawing some criticism from the Albury-Wodonga Development Corporation. The corporation believed the development would stifle commercial development and devalue land in the nearby suburb of Thurgoona, thus reducing capacity to make repayments on loans used to finance rapid growth and expansion of the twin cities. 
On 30 July 1979 the new centre, named Border Shoppingtown, was opened by Premier Neville Wran. It was built by developers RDC Properties and T &amp; G Mutual Life Assurance Society on the site of former orchard. At its opening, the centre provided over of floor space dedicated to two anchor tenants, a Woolworths supermarket and a Big W discount department store. In addition, the centre contained 37 smaller speciality retailers, three kiosks and 850 parking spaces.
Following its sale new owners, the name was changed to Lavington Square in 1988, ahead of a planned $2 million expansion; by this time, the centre had attracted a third major retailer, Fosseys. Completion of these extensions allowed the Lavington post office to relocate inside the centre from 1993.
It was also known as Centro Lavington for some time, but then returned to the Lavington Square name in 2013.
