Yorkdale (TTC)

Yorkdale is a station on the Yonge-University Spadina line of the Toronto subway. It is located on W.R. Allen Road just south of Highway 401. It opened 1978, named for the nearby Yorkdale Shopping Centre, to which it has an enclosed walkway. Connections are available to GO Transit buses (as well as Greyhound and airport stuttles) at the Yorkdale Bus Terminal at the south east corner. Nearby attractions included Downsview Park and Columbus Centre.

The station's arched glass roof originally featured an artwork by Michael Hayden called Arc en Ciel (French for "rainbow"). This consisted of a large number of variously colored neon lights that would light in a pattern running along the station in the appropriate direction whenever a train went through. After some years this stopped working, and because the computer system used to control the lights would have been expensive to replace, it was removed.

After Yorkdale station Allen Road descends into a shallow open cut below the surrounding ground level, and the subway descends with it.
