Esplanade commonly refers to a raised walkway. It may also refer to one of the following.
An esplanade or promenade is a long, open, level area, usually next to a river or large body of water, where people may walk. The original meaning of esplanade was a large, open, level area outside fortress or city walls to provide clear fields of fire for the fortress' guns. In modern usage the space allows people to walk for recreational purposes; esplanades are often on sea fronts, and allow walking whatever the state of the tide, without having to walk on the beach. Esplanades became popular in Victorian times when it was fashionable to visit seaside resorts. A promenade, often abbreviated to '(the) Prom', was an area where people - couples and families especially - would go to walk for a while in order to 'be seen' and be considered part of 'society'.
In North America, esplanade has another meaning, being also a median (strip of raised land) dividing a roadway or boulevard. Sometimes they are just strips of grass, or some may have gardens and trees. Some roadway esplanades may be used as parks with a walking/jogging trail and benches.

In this video we see some trains at Elizabeth Quay, a station on the southern edge of Perth's CBD serving the Elizabeth Quay busport and the Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre. Here we only see 3 & 6 carriage B Series EMU's. It is one of only two underground stations in Perth, the other being platforms 1 & 2 at Perth station. Elizabeth Quay opened as Esplanade in October 2007 as part of the construction of the Mandurah line through Perth's southern suburbs. It was renamed Elizabeth Quay on the 31st January 2016 after the Elizabeth Quay urban renewal precinct. I recorded this on the 21st January 2016, about a week before the name change.
