Bank Station (OC Transpo)
Bank Transitway Station or Bank Street Station is a bus-stop on Ottawa, Ontario, Canada's transitway served by OC Transpo buses. It is located on the central transitway, which is part of the 95 line, 96 line and 97 line. Bank is named for Bank Street which is located perpendicular to the transitway about half a block west of the station. There are actually two separate stations as in the downtown part of Ottawa, because the transitway is split with westbound routes on Albert Street and east bound routes on Slater Street. The westbound station is located on Albert Street between Bank Street and O'Connor Street while the eastbound station is on Slater Street also between Bank and O'Connor. At this part of the transitway, buses must share the road with other vehicles.
Main buildings located near the station include the following:
L'Esplanade Laurier, the Clarica Complex, the Bank of Montreal building, and several other midrise towers.

Famous quotes containing the words bank and/or station:
“People get a bad impression of it by continually trying to treat it as if it was a bank clerk, who ought to be on time on Tuesday next, instead of philosophically seeing it as a painter, who may do anything so long as you don’t try to predict what.”
—Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
“It was evident that the same foolish respect was not here claimed for mere wealth and station that is in many parts of New England; yet some of them were the “first people,” as they are called, of the various towns through which we passed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
