Bank Street

Bank Street in a probably the longest street in Ottawa; its north end starts at Wellington Street and it ends Conroy road close to the Ottawa airport.  Its north section, ending at the Rideau River in Sunnyside, is certainly the most interesting section as it is goes through older neighbourhoods and serves as the main commercial streets with proximity shops.  

Its south section, from Riverside Drive to Conroy Road, is still a commercial street but as it gets wider, it is populated with big box store and national chains.
