Features
Initially a minor road, Terry Fox Drive became a more important and busier road due to growing communities in Kanata and neighbouring Stittsville. The Kanata Centrum shopping complex, a Holiday Inn, a number of large-scale retail uses and Scotiabank Place (which began as the Palladium in 1996 and was later known as the Corel Centre) are now located along the road. OC Transpo's Terry Fox Station and Park and ride, opened in 2004, are also located near the Centrum.
Terry Fox Drive is also the location of the City Hall of the former city of Kanata.
Kanata's second Wal-Mart (a Wal-Mart Supercentre) opened in August 2012 and is located at the intersection of Terry Fox Drive and Fernbank Road (there is also a regular Wal-Mart in Kanata Centrum).

Famous quotes containing the word features:
“It is a tribute to the peculiar horror of contemporary life that it makes the worst features of earlier times—the stupefaction of the masses, the obsessed and driven lives of the bourgeoisie—seem attractive by comparison.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
“However much we may differ in the choice of the measures which should guide the administration of the government, there can be but little doubt in the minds of those who are really friendly to the republican features of our system that one of its most important securities consists in the separation of the legislative and executive powers at the same time that each is acknowledged to be supreme, in the will of the people constitutionally expressed.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
