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:
“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
