Public Transportation
In the early 2000s a major portion of the shopping centre's parking lot was redeveloped into a large bus terminal as part of the Toronto Transit Commission's (TTC's) Don Mills subway station (the eastern terminus of Toronto's new Sheppard subway line), and also as the southern terminus of York Region Transit's Viva Green bus rapid transit line. A significant number of the TTC's local and express bus routes deploy from or pass through this terminal station, including express buses from nearby Scarborough.
Additionally, for the duration of the closure of nearby Don Mills Shopping Centre from June 2006 to 21 April 2009, a free weekdays shuttle bus service ran between the two shopping centres.

Famous quotes containing the word public:
“In public buildings set aside for the care and maintenance of the goods of the middle ages, a staff of civil service art attendants praise all the dead, irrelevant scribblings and scrawlings that, at best, have only historical interest for idiots and layabouts.”
—George Grosz (1893–1959)
