Queens Park Subway

The Queens Park Subway is located on the Yonge-University-Spadina Line of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC). It is located at Queens Park (College and University Avenues). The subway was opened in 1963. I'm afraid that coming here today was a bit of a rushed attempt to get to the street car and I didn't take many pictures. Will have to come back some time to take a look at the Queens Park and the Legislative Assembly of Ontario buildings. Perhaps at the same time as visiting Osgoode Hall!!

This station is also at a key central core of many important Hospitals including Sick Kids Childrens Hospital, Mount Sinai, Princess Margaret, Toronto General and Women's College Hospital here in Toronto. I've known someone who has been treated in each and every one of these hospitals ranging from a son quarantined at Sick Kids with a severe case of chicken pox, a friend operated on at Mount Sinai for complications with colitis, a relative losing a breast to cancer at Princess Margaret, a neighbour operated on after a car accident at Toronto General, and a female friend just looking for advice and someone to listen to her in a non-judgmental environment at the Women's College Hospital. All of these professional services within minutes of each other.
