The areas around Ossington station consist of some pretty good places to eat and some nice neighborhoods. Because of that I've been to this station a handful of times. The station itself doesn't seem that different from many of the other older and not so new looking stations out there... you know which ones they are. Dufferin even has new tile. Christie still looks the same as does Bathurst or Lansdowne. Ossington's buses have a depot here though unlike Dufferin where you must fend for yourself for a space on the sidewalk along with the other riders. It's a station so there's no sneaking on the back door so to speak. The bus runs into this station from Ossington Ave (the 63). The 63 runs out of the station down Ossington to Queen and then Shaw and south to King to go east and then south of Strachan. It runs though Liberty Village along Liberty to Atlantic before looping back up Shaw and up Ossington again. It will stop at Ossington station and head north to St. Clair. The 63A continues along Oakwood ave to Eglinton and goes to Eglinton West station on line 1. The 94A (Wellesley) runs south on Ossington to Harbord and then east on Harbord though U of T running down Queens park and east along Wellesley to Wellesley station passing Yonge and continues to Parliament where it then heads north up to Bloor and Castle Frank station. The 161 (Rogers) is a pretty complex route that runs north along Dovercourt to Davenport and up Oakwood and then west on Rogers all the way to the end where it meets Weston Road and then runs mostly through residential streets ending up at Jane and Lambton before looking back around.

It's quiet, but too many stairs for me. On the bright side, it doesn't smell like urine, so that's a definite bonus.

Spadina Subway Station - Westbound platform

Spadina Subway Station

1.8 km•The Annex

Tip: Taking the 510 streetcar gets you to Chinatown, The Well, and Harbourfront. It's cheaper than…read moreparking at any of these places! I recently took the line 2 (Bloor-Danforth) subway from Victoria Park to Spadina. I was heading to a Blue Jays game at Rogers Centre for a work event. It was cheaper to simply take public transportation down to the venue than shelling out for parking nearby. Spadina station holds a special place in my heart. I grew up taking the TTC with my mom to hit Chinatown at Spadina and Dundas Street West. Back then, it was the Spadina 77 bus that ran along Spadina Avenue to and from this subway station. When you leave any line 2 train, you can still see a bus image next to the station name on the platform. I also managed to see several pay phones on the subway platform, which threw me back. In my head, I had Spadina Bus, a song by The Shuffle Demons, playing on repeat as I was at this station. A classic! I may need to find the video version to reminisce about the original 77 bus. Spadina is a subway hub. I went up a set of stairs from line 2 to catch the 510 Spadina streetcar. Back in November 2024, this streetcar wasn't running. Instead, there were 510 buses. Well, I got to ride the streetcar at long last. It was waiting for me at the station. I had no problem finding a seat and taking it down to Bremner Boulevard. I then walked over to Rogers Centre. It was convenient and easy. After the game, it was weird seeing three 510 streetcars heading northbound i a cluster as I walked towards Spadina Avenue. When I got to the streetcar stop, I waited a good fifteen minutes before the next streetcar came. Some things never change. I don't get TTC schedules. Never did. Never will. This subway station is wheelchair-accessible. I saw an elevator as I was heading to the streetcar platform. This station also connects you to line 1 (Yonge-University-Spadina). I remember transferring from line 2 to line 1 as an undergraduate student. I took the subway northbound to Yorkdale to shop at the mall and hang out there. Good times. It was cool being back at this station. Some things have changed, but there are remnants from my past that prompt fond memories. (170)

Spadina while technically being an interchange station between the 1 and 2 lines is a LOOONG walk…read moreto get from one line to another. Unless you want the exercise it doesn't really make sense time-wise to change lines at Spadina versus changing stations at St. George which is one platform on top of another with only one set of steps to really separate you. Spadina's Bloor platform has Walmer Road as the west exit while the east exit up one level takes you to the street car platform which is indoors (no transfer required) for the 510 Spadina line that goes southbound to Harbourfront. Up and down Spadina ave the dedicated street car platform splits the streets north and south bound directions. There are fare purchase systems for TTC/Presto on these street platforms but it's not like they're gated or anything like that. I've seen so many people get on without necessarily tapping or paying unless they had a transfer already... hard to say and none of my business. Still, it seems that this is one of those locations if you're looking to avoid paying it would be as simple as just getting on the back doors. The new longer street cars build by Bombardier run on this line.

We visited Lower Bay Subway Station as a part of DoorsOpen 2024 and it was very well-organized. All…read morethe guides were knowledgeable and helpful and friendly. It was really nice to travel in time and see how things were run not very long time ago. There were subway cars in the station for you to go inside, explore and take pictures. There were also posters available talking about the history of TTC, subway lines and stations and how streetcars improved during time.

Bay Street subway station is located on the northside of Bloor street west and west of Bay street…read more Bay station some entrances attached to buildings like 80 and 110 Bloor West but there's also one on Cumberland and one on east side of Belair south of Cumberland and the other is on the west side of Bay also south of Cumberland. This is a basically your stop for Yorkville between Bay and Avenue road. As far as proximity the two business interchange stations flank Bay station to the east and west (St. George, Bloor-Yonge) and they're not that far from one another. I had to actually use Bay station the other night as it's probably my least used station in the core. Both line 1 on the University or Yonge lines wasn't stopping at either Bloor station (St. George or Bloor-Yonge) due to a police investigation around 11pm on May 24th, 2019. Inconvenient right? It's a bit of a walk from Wellesley to Bay station but it had to be done. The only bus route connecting to this station is a transfer required board which is route 6 (Bay). The top of the route starts at Dupont and Davenport not that far from Casa Loma in fact it's not far from Dupont station. The route travels south along Davenport to Bay and south on Bay all the way to Queens Quay before turning left (east) where it eventually loops around at Lower Sherbourne by the FedEx downtown depot. On the Belair Street side entrance just next door is a business called DECIEM The Abnormal Beauty Company. They want you to know that their business is NOT BAY. Their signage kind of looks like Bay station but is not Bay. I guess they had so many people walk in by accident that they not play on that. Funny...

From here you can reach the theater district, music hall venues, financial offices, etc. Trams and buses can be seen just feet away from many of the subway entrances, so it's easy to connect to points around the city.

King is perhaps one of the most mundane and busiest stations to exist. Between St. Andy and King…read more(which are both on King Street) all the big tall old bank buildings are between these two stations with St. Andrew on University and King station on Yonge, separated by Bay street. Street access from both 1 and 4 King West is available as well as stairs in front of 7 King East and inside 8 King East. There is also an entrance near the Commerce Court at Melinda street. The PATH connects underground at both 1 and 4 King West. This station requires a transfer to get on to any other TTC surface vehicle (bus or streetcar) in which there are many. 172 Cheery Street runs west from St. Andrew on King to Church, south on Church to the Esplanade before turning up Berkeley to Front and south on Parliament to Mill Street near the distillery then east to Cherry Street where it runs south either to Commissioners or south on Cherry. On the return loop from Church instead of running back to King it runs west on Wellington (which is a one way west) to York before turning right and east again on King street towards King station. 97 Yonge runs along Yonge mostly as a supplement to the subway with a few diversions along Bay near Queens Quay. 503 streetcar (Kingston Road) runs west from the Binham Loop (Kingston and Vic Park) west along Kingston Road to Queen and then south on King after the Don River fork and continues west along King then south on Church and west on Wellington before looping up York and east on King towards King Station again. 504 streetcar runs between Dundas West and Broadview station south along Roncesvalles, King and Broadview, north to Broadview station and back. This Street car crosses both St. Andrew and King station along King. 508 streetcar runs from the Long Branch loop near Lakeshore and Brownsline along Lakeshore Blvd, then along the Queensway to King street near the Roncesvalles junction crossing both St. Andrew and King stations. East of Yonge service differs depending on time of day.
