Bloor Station

This is probably the busiest station in our subway system and it has the widest platforms of any of the stations in order to accommodate the rush hour crowds. This was a mid morning shot taken when the weather was a bit warmer so no huge boots or coats in evidence!

    For me, this is an incredible place! It looks warm and lush and inviting. We don't have subways and I am more than just a little jealous!

    It is a nice station. The subway system in Toronto is wonderful.

    I think those are the widest platforms I've ever seen in any subway system. Very nice.

    I have been in that station, but it's been years. The size of the place certainly stands out.

    I hate public transport in the winter when it's cold! You sweat in there like oily sardines and then freeze outside... :-)

    Really, right now we're getting ready for a nor'easter and everybody is bundling up, especially those riding the Metro.

    I remember Bloor Station when the the streetcars were still operating on Bloor Danforth. The change over to the subway was pretty cool. I used it many times on my way to Sam's or A&A's.

    The name Bloor brings back memories of my dissolute youth.....

    Love the look of this station with the reflections on the ceiling.

    They have been wise to build it with a wide passageway, since it will only become busier over time.
