The mile-long Bricktown Canal links downtown, Bricktown and the river.
The north segment extends east from the Santa Fe railroad, past restaurants and entertainment venues to the Bricktown Ballpark.
As the canal turns south toward the river, it is highlighted by hiking and bicycle trails, water features and landscaped park areas. Water Taxi offers rides down the canal. Various public and private development projects are in progress along the Canal.
The Canal is maintained by the Parks & Recreation Department.
