I'm hoping they open the station up for Doors Open this year, seems like it should be complete enough to let people walk around for a day.

Inside a darkroom most likely. We'll see what develops without the lights on.

I have no idea at this time as to what is being built on the south side of Eglinton for the new GO/UPX station. It could be retaining walls to support the tracks that will be move to the west location or part of the station platform.
The main footing for the tunnel for the LRT trail tack and future extension was pour over a week ago that will connect ti the tunnel section west of the rail corridor. This will allow the tunnel to be built along with a tunnel from the Weston Rd entrance to the section already built under the RR tracks to the LRT/Bus stations.
Been told core drilling has been taking place on the west side of Weston Rd where the new extension is to go by someone who visit the site daily.

The Kodak building is developing nicely. Nothing negative about it.
Wonder if to keep the homeless out, they'll be playing the following 24/7? Maybe with variations.

It will be known by Mid to late April based on where construction is if there will be an Open Door Event for the area if the Open Door Event take place at the end of May.
From the outside you can see a lot of work is still required in the station, let alone building the trail track tunnel, the pedestrian tunnel and the new GO/UPX station. The overhead in the station is the same as Ottawa and TTC St Clair W Loop, with work still taking place on it. This work and work within the tunnel and station is stopping testing of trains on the mainline as well the lack of a signalling system.
Blue plastic is covering where glazing is to go near the top of the roof for the station.
More up on site for this thread as well Black Creek, Keelesdale and Caledonia.

Doubtful if Covid-19 isn't contained. And I don't think construction will finish by then.March 12

Covid-19 is the big question mark today, but maybe a different story come May. Not been inside the station itself, hard to say what has to take place to finish it. The bus terminal and maintenance complex is complete and don't need Eglinton to gain access to the area. There are 2 major roads leading to the complex and are open. Fencing can be place around area where construction taken place inside the station, but don't expect the elevators will be working then.
The 2 tunnels will not be completed and will not be require for an Open Door Event. Wasn't in the country for the last Open Door event for the site.
The GO Station will not be complete until 2021.
