===CBDs===
The Dhaka metropolitan area boasts of several [[central business district]]s (CBDs). In the southern part of the city, the riverfront of [[Old Dhaka]] is home to many small businesses, factories, and trading companies. Near Old Dhaka lies [[Motijheel Thana|Motijheel]], which is the biggest CBD in Bangladesh. The Motijheel area developed in the 1960s. [[Motijheel Thana|Motijheel]] is home to the [[Bangladesh Bank]], the nation's central bank; as well as the headquarters of the largest state-owned banks, including [[Janata Bank]], [[Pubali Bank]], [[Sonali Bank]] and [[Rupali Bank]]. By the 1990s, the affluent residential neighbourhoods of [[Gulshan Thana|Gulshan]], [[Banani (town)|Banani]] and [[Uttara Thana|Uttara]] in the northern part of the city became a major business centre and now hosts many international companies operating in Bangladesh. The [[Purbachal New Town Project]] is planned as the city's future CBD.
