canalside
Beside the channel
Canalside describes the area alongside a canal—the banks, paths, and adjacent property: canalside apartments, a canalside café.
The term appears in urban development contexts where former industrial waterways have been converted to recreational or residential use: The city's canalside district has become a popular destination.
