Finch West is a subway station on the Line 1 Yonge–University of the Toronto subway. It is located under Keele Street, north of Finch Avenue West, and opened on December 17, 2017.

Description

The station is underground and parallel to Keele Street just north of Finch Avenue West. Nearby landmarks include Fountainhead Park. Industrial areas lie to the east, James Cardinal McGuigan Catholic High School to the west and York University is to the northwest, served by the next station north on the line.

The main entrance is located on the east side of Keele Street with the secondary entrance on the west side. The main structure has a striped, bar-code cladding to decorate its exterior along with colourful tiling and windows. An elevated substation facility is on the second floor of the main building and overhangs the main entrance as a canopy. The main entrance is highlighted by a glowing panel attached to the canopy. There is a cool roof over this entrance and a green roof over the elevated substation box. The 6-bay bus terminal has an enclosed concourse. Bicycle parking at the station includes 100 secure plus 13 short-term spaces. North of the station is a parking lot for 350 cars plus a pick-up-and-drop-off facility.[2][3][4]

A consortium of consultants including SGA/IBI, Lea Consulting, HH Angus and Associates, Pivotal Projects, Janet Rosenberg and Associates, and Will Alsop of Alsop Architects designed Finch West station. Artist Bruce McLean worked with the design team to integrate sculptural concrete forms with the supporting columns within the entrance buildings, on double-height platform columns and under the bus canopy.[3]

History

In March 2006, The Globe and Mail reported that real estate development companies belonging to the family of Ontario Finance Minister Greg Sorbara owned the properties just south of the intersection of Finch Avenue West and Keele Street, according to land registry documents and corporate records. The article said that these companies would benefit from higher real estate values due to the subway extension. Sorbara was the Liberal Member of Provincial Parliament for Vaughan, and was a major advocate for the Toronto–York Spadina Subway Extension, which includes Finch West station.[5]

On November 27, 2009, the official ground breaking ceremony was held for the Toronto–York Spadina Subway Extension, and major tunnelling operations started in June 2011.[6]

In mid-2015, the former Toronto Fire Station 141 on the east side of Keele and south side of hydro corridor was demolished to make way for the bus platform area. A new fire station replaced this building on the opposite side of Keele Street.[7]

Surface connections

{{Main|List of Toronto Transit Commission bus routes}}

The 36 Finch West bus route splits here to help maintain reliable service in light of the Finch West LRT construction west of this station. The 36 Finch West and 939B Finch Express enter via Tangiers Road.[8] When the subway is closed, buses do not enter the station and bypass Tangiers Road. Buses serving Keele Street do not enter the station but stop on-street, and a transfer is required for connection.[9]

The following routes serve the station:[10][11]

Fare collection

As with all stations from {{ttcs|Lawrence West}} north to Vaughan Metropolitan Centre, legacy TTC fare media (tokens and tickets) are accepted at this station, but they cannot be purchased by passengers, who otherwise need to pay exact change for cash fares. Presto cards can be purchased and loaded with funds for single rides or a digital monthly TTC pass for unlimited travel, using various automated machines at the station.[12]

Line 6 Finch West

{{main|Line 6 Finch West}}

Line 6 Finch West, expected to open in 2023, will have its eastern terminus at Finch West station. An LRT station has already been roughed-in but is sealed off by a temporary wall until the LRT line opens.[13][14] The future LRT station will be located with an east–west orientation under Finch Avenue West passing above the crossover box structure for Line 1 trains. The station will have side platforms.[15]
