A third period of intensive building activity in Cairns took place in the 1920s, associated with the expansion of the town as the port servicing the new soldier settlements inland; the upgrading to City status in 1923; the establishment of Cairns in 1924 as the terminus of the North Coast railway from Brisbane; and the reconstruction following extensive cyclone damage to the Cairns central business district in the early and mid-1920s.
