They won't.BurlOak, I think you will agree then, It should go to McCowan and Finch, not sheppard. They need to get more funding.

I wouldn't put money on that.
Now that Ford appears to have self-destructed would it be possible for City Council to grow a pair and revert to the originally planned Scarborough LRT, while putting the $660 million from the feds into east/west extensions of the Eglinton LRT?
Hopefully, these new subway stations in Scarborough will have interesting architecture and art for a change on the Bloor-Danforth line. I used to commute from the Junction to Scarborough. To see the same generic station design 25 times (one way) in your commute is boring and unsatisfactory.
If a station cannot be added in the near future, then there should be a rough-in, just like when the Yonge Line was extended to Finch that had a rough-in for what would later be North York Centre station.Unfortunately I'm not holding my breath on this. One thing I don't like about going the subway route is that there will not be a lot of extra money to go above and beyond with. For example, while a stop in the Brimley, Eglinton, and Danforth area would likely bring in a lot of riders, there is little room financially to add it in.
The stops will likely be nicer than what is along the rest of the line, but nothing close to what is along the Spadina line. My bet is that they will look about as nice as those along Sheppard, more or less.
