Station Modernization
The TTC has plans to renovate this station. Part of the plan includes the demolition of the current bus terminal and construction of a new, wheelchair-accessible one on the north side of the station. The plans also call for a new passenger pick up and drop off area, installation of elevators for increased accessibility to the subway level and exterior landscaping and upgrades to station finishes to give it a more modern look. The project is scheduled to start in 2010 and last approximately 3 years.

Famous quotes containing the word station:
“I introduced her to Elena, and in that life-quickening atmosphere of a big railway station where everything is something trembling on the brink of something else, thus to be clutched and cherished, the exchange of a few words was enough to enable two totally dissimilar women to start calling each other by their pet names the very next time they met.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
