The main transfers of Public Servants began in 1927. Some departments such as the Printers moved up to Canberra in 1926. Public Servants transferring to Canberra had a choice of cottage styles from which to select and the favourite was FCC 9. (FCC = Federal Capital Commission 1929-1930). The majority of cottages in the permanent suburbs were constructed in brick. A few timber cottages were built in 1926 for workmen in the suburb of Ainslie and Westridge (Yarralumla). Some public servants did select timber cottages.
