Old locations - they are on the same level as the lower retail concourse now within the retail spaces - and they are both on the south wall

And when you think the garage excavation is big - wait until they start digging for the Enwave tanks

The two locations on the south side on P2 are the old locations as shown in the Site Plan Application materials from late 2017. The new locations are P4, one each on Front and Spadina. The image I posted is from the Site Plan Application materials submitted 9 days ago.

This project is just nuts on so many levels.

I'm hoping there is more than a 1 storey above ground rail hub going up @ the S/W corner of Spadina + Front

Those are dumb locations in that case - in the service basement of an office tower. You'd think you'd want rail passengers going through your retail areas.

I imagine the basement would be reconfigured if/when the connections are confirmed. It would be a quick escalator and stair run up to P2 where the retail begins.

In looking at the servicing section of Front Street, it seems these knockout panels went down to P4 due to deep services under Front at the P3 level including an 850mm x 1300mm sanitary line.

Remember the train platform for this new station is well below Front Street as the tracks are in a deep trench in this location. Probably around P4 depth actually. So maybe this is not so dumb after all?

The tracks sit about 6m below Front Street - so around P2.

Interesting. Not doubting you but do you have a source? Looks deeper as I eyeball it from Google Earth but who knows really.

Google earth has an cursor elevation feature that gives you ASL elevations. Front Street is 278ft, the tracks are 259ft. About 5.7m difference.

Look at that block plan! All going to be done by Claude Cormier too!

I'm very excited!

That is correct - there are cross-section plans from Rail Deck Park Engineering and Costing Study (Appendix) - p. 11:
