PRIME CAIRNS CBD POSITION
50 Grafton Street is located on the corner of Spence & Grafton Streets in the heart of the Cairns CBD. Across the road from popular Rusty’s Markets and Gilligan’s entertainment precinct/hostel and surrounded by the city’s most ‘on trend’ cafes and boutiques.
Only two blocks from the newly refurbished and expanded Cairns Convention Centre, walking distance to the Cairns Cruise Liner Terminal and in the centre of the business district, this is one of the most popular locations in town. Anchored by long term local tenants Cartel Collective, Scene Hair, Natural Palm Day Spa, All About Cairns and XS Nightclub makes this a great choice for your new business.
The previous Rydges Plaza Hotel located above these vacancies has undergone a major refurbishment and is now open as The Benson Hotel and is ‘the place’ to go in town. The tenancies in this building will be in high demand and the reinvigorated hotel will drive even more business.
59 The Esplanade is located on the corner of Shields Street and The Esplanade. This is the busiest foot traffic corner in the CBD. It is situated at the start of the brand new $28M Cairns Esplanade Dining Precinct opposite the parklands and swimming lagoon. A new 76 room Oaks Hotel above, anchored by long term tenants McDonalds, Baskin Robbins and NightOwl guarantees you the best position in the city for your business.
The Esplanade and surrounding city blocks have a vast array of accommodation from 5 star hotels to self contained apartments occupied by both travellers and full time residents, so there is a solid customer base at your doorstep. A good mix of retail, food, boutiques and the Cairns Night Markets makes this a popular spot for both locals and tourists alike.

PRIME RETAIL CENTRE
Sheridan Street is the main arterial road joining the growing Northern Beaches suburbs to the heart of the Cairns CBD. This is a high exposure
site at a very busy intersection with ample car parking and public bus stop. In 2016, 217 Sheridan re-opened after construction of four new retail
tenancies, a gymnasium and an additional 23 car parks. This enabled the centre to expand on the range of tenancies to ensure a busy trading centre
for all involved.
