What are the odds this complex gets renamed before opening?

I'm betting on "Wynford".

 

[LUVIT!]

Why would they rename?

Why would they rename?

Flemingdon Park station is right beside the Science Centre front entrance.

Flemingdon Park station is right beside the Science Centre front entrance.

They could just switch the two station names. But that would probably make too much sense.

Yup, they could and should do that, but that would make sense.

And then have to rename the still very new ECLRT station too?

Eglinton East subway station works too.

And then have to rename the still very new ECLRT station too?

And since it's not even open yet, it's the perfect time to rename it...

…but since they won't, we will forever have a Science Centre station that won't be the closest station to the Science Centre. That's okay though, as people need the exercise?

I'm just thinking of that poor intersection of Eglinton Ave. E. and Don Mills Rd. which has to be ripped up all over again to to put in this new station and line...

All the people in London who accidentally go to Wembley Central tube station to get to the stadium will relate.

Ideally yeah. That said, the ECLRT station will be at least 7 or 8 years old by the time the OL opens, so the current signage wouldn't have been a total waste.
