Geography
Bulcock Street is the central business district of the Caloundra urban centre.

History
The suburb takes its name from the headland Caloundra Head (in the neighbouring suburb of Kings Beach), which in turn comes from the Kabi language words "kal/owen" meaning beech tree (Gmelina leichhardtii) and "dha" meaning place.[1]
In 1883 the first allotments of land in Caloundra were advertised for public auction on 28 August 1883.

In 1919, 29 subdivided allotments of 'Caloundra Heads Estate' were advertised to be auctioned on 20 December 1919 by Cameron Bros. in Brisbane. A map advertising the auction shows the majority of blocks were on Albert Street between King Street and King's Beach.[11][12] Another undated map shows more blocks of this estate were advertised for auction on King Street towards Ernest Street.[13]
