The station is located under Yonge Street, where it is intersected by Park Home Avenue and Empress Avenue. This is within North York Centre, a high density area of the Willowdale neighbourhood. This community formerly consisted of single family homes and small businesses, and the coming of the subway has served as a stimulus for high-rise residential and commercial development. ==History== North York Centre opened in 1987 in what was then the City of North York as a single station addition to the Yonge-University line. This station was added by excavating alongside the existing tracks, on a level section of route provided for this purpose when the line was built. The view across the tracks between platforms is not as open as most stations, as the solid concrete wall had to retain its load-bearing strength, and smaller openings were cut. In late 2007 the TTC began work to make the station accessible to those with limited mobility, and in November 2009 the work was completed. Two elevators were installed to take passengers from mezzanine level to the subway platforms. Persons in wheelchairs or with other mobility restrictions are now able to enter from street level by way of existing facilities in the major buildings on both sides of the station. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「North York Centre (TTC)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
