As will Park Lawn (assuming it ends up with that name — really should be Humber Bay).

Little bit old, but I found these on the AIC and thought they make more sense of where this relocated station will ultimately end up. Is this the first station-over-a-road in the GTA? Also, gotta love the BiLevel EMU:

Thank you for the renders ProjectEnd, I absolutely love the station extending over Sheppard. I’ve been awaiting this relocation for the 17 years I’ve lived in the area. I’m just worried about whether this is actually happening?

The most recent update dated November 21 indicates that Metrolinx intends to extend the platform north to the bridge at Esther Shiner Blvd (for the 401 ramp relocation). Hopefully this is just a temporary wooden platform:

A platform extension to Esther Shiner Blvd. will be built to accommodate a 10-car train.

I’m also curious how they intend to maintain the connection to Leslie St or Esther Shiner via the new bridge connecting to Woodsworth, once the relocation has happened.
