By 1908, a general store opened, and that year the Baptists built a church and opened a school. Poultry farming intensified. In 1921, the school moved into the old hotel, which had been renovated. The orchards did not work out, but in 1919, the establishment of the Robson–Castlegar cable-guided reaction ferry developed Robson into a bedroom community for the larger centre. Enhancements to the Castlegar bridge infrastructure ended the ferry service around 1970. The 1994 opening of the Robson–Castlegar bridge restored a direct link.
