it's only been about 5 years.. possibly longer.. in China they build entire massive subway lines in the same amount of time. The station still looks pretty decrepit after years of work

Actually, this construction started in the Fall of 2014. It has been a full three years.

If the rumours are true that the southbound 92 stop is gone at Danforth, ironically those from the northwest will have to start running across the street - it's a long walk otherwise.

Got some pictures on the north platform at Woodbine early this evening. Apparently the second exit and elevators opened on Tuesday.
Mezzanine level - north elevator (westbound)
Platform level. North Elevator. You can see some work needs finishing around the plumbing.
New signage on Westbound level. But after all this work, the NEXT TRAIN is still showing KIPLING! Hmm, something is leaking.

Rode by today while checking out the new woodbine bike lanes on what is likely the last nice day of the year.. and this looks quite good. While it took way, way too long, the final product is at least nice.

Way too long? Compare to Donlands and Greenwood which had their initial open houses the same day (June 29, 2010) as Woodbine. Donlands is currently estimated to only start construction in 2019 with completion in 2022 while Greenwood is to start construction in 2021 with completion in 2023. Though those dates could still slip. Both were to have been finished by 2014 originally.
