Additional Details:
Canal Street, 170 feet wide, one of the widest central business throroughfares in the world, got its name from the fact that in olden days a big drainage canal ran down the center of it, and it marked the upper limits of the old city two centuries ago, with the ramparts along the edge of the canal and forts as terminals.
