The last four photos, is that the location for the second entrance?

Both entrances are on the north side of Eglinton. You can see one of them as the large concrete monolith at the extreme right-hand side of the first two images.

This appears to be the construction site for the upcoming CentreCourt Condo, which is at the south-west corner of the intersection.

There's actually a potential third entrance in the CentreCourt Condo.

First time on a Sunday that I saw no one working on the ROW. Lots of rail to see rubber molding wrap on both side of the rail. Not sure how that will not be an impact on testing the cars unless testing is at night.

Signs up at intersections on both sides of the pole warning everyone about testing the cars, but no shot of one at this time.

There's actually a potential third entrance in the CentreCourt Condo.

There is (or was supposed to be) a knock-out panel within the station, yes.

But did they say that they were going to build that entrance there as part of the building construction? If so, that's fantastic news.

The project name is actually The Forest Hill Condominiums, though CentreCourt is the name of the developer.

Is that all they've progressed so far at Forest Hill??

Correct me if I am wrong but is this not one of the stations that had a collapse at some point?

Those things are beasts!

This is the station that had the House of Chan façade collapse. The restaurant itself moved eastwards along Eglinton, but the northwest entrance takes its place.

That's what I thought. If the MoL was involved, this could explain the construction delays.
