This one is better that World on Yonge. Short walk to Finch Station. No reason to wait for an extension though it certainly will help drive traffic to future Cummer Station.

Are they connecting this development underground directly to the Finch subway station? When I lived with my parents, there was an underground link to Finch via one of the commercial buildings on the east side of Yonge, just south of Newtonbrook plaza. I wonder if they will connect to that.
Connection to that office tower still exists.

I can see the house where my parents live in that shot. Thanks for posting it Edward.
I went to Drewry Public School (top left) and my mother-in-laws house is just off the page on the right.

Wow small world. When I lived with my parents in that house I was already at U of T. My parents' house is in the bottom right of that photo.

What it looked like in 1968.
Hmmm,... Toronto Archive has lots of photos along Yonge Corridor in North York from 1968,.... I guess Lockwood Survey Corp Ltd did them for TTC as they expanded Yonge Subway line from Eglinton to Finch (opened 1974); subway tail track goes up to Cummer/Drewry.
Anyways,... what it looks like more recently on GoogleEarth.

This was the last item dealt with at the July 2015 City Council. Going to the OMB in the fall. Some things confidential at the moment. We should know more soon.

Yeap,.... Bingo Benito!
At the bottom left of the GoogleEarth image, Yonge Street is labelled incorrectly as Bloor Street. And now I can't replicate that bug,...
