The station is located on Strathmore Boulevard just east of Coxwell Avenue and one block north of Danforth Avenue. It opened in 1966 as part of the original segment of the Bloor-Danforth line. Automatic sliding doors, accessible fare gates and the addition of elevators made the station fully accessible in late December 2017. DescriptionThe entrance, collector's booth, turnstiles and bus bays are at street level, the concourse is on the second level, and the subway platforms are on the lower level. Stairs connect all levels with escalators only operating up at all times. This station is used as a switchover point for subway operators changing their shift, regularly causing a slight delay while the crew is changed in either direction. {{citation needed|date=February 2015}} Station collectors and subway operators use office space at the Danforth Garage,[1] which is located on the south side of Danforth Avenue near the station. The station underwent renovations to add elevators from the street to both subway platforms, automatic sliding doors, accessible fare gates, and improved signage which made it fully accessible by 2017. This is part of a system wide program that will retrofit all stations by 2030.[2][3] On December 22, 2016, this station along with Leslie are the last subway stations to be Presto card enabled which means by then all subway stations now accept Presto.[4] {{Stack|}}In October 2016, the Coxwell Laneway Mosaic Mural was unveiled by dignitaries including TTC Chair Josh Colle, who said "At the TTC, public art not only beautifies our properties, but it's become a catalyst for station improvement projects". The mural is mounted on the outside of the barrier separating the Coxwell Station bus loop from a pedestrian walkway on the east and a parking lot on the south. The work is divided two sections representing past and future. It was created by a local group led by artist Cristina Delago.[5] Installed in 2018, the artwork Forwards and Backwards by Jennifer Davis and Jon Sasaki is displayed on the station concourse level,[6] giving the effect of a funhouse mirror. Artist Davis describes the work as "a three-dimensional sculpted curtain, cast in polished reflective aluminum, a material widely used in the TTC's rolling stock and infrastructure". The "sculpted curtain" is intended as a tribute to the TTC's "behind-the-curtain" employees.[7] Nearby landmarksNearby landmarks include Monarch Park Stadium, Monarch Park Collegiate Institute, Michael Garron Hospital and the East York Civic Centre.
