Victoria Park station

Victoria Park is a station on the Bloor–Danforth line of the subway system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located at 777 Victoria Park Avenue, one block north of Danforth Avenue. The station can be accessed by pedestrians directly from Victoria Park Avenue; by way of an unmanned entrance from Albion Avenue; through an automated entrance from Teesdale Place; via a walkway that leads to the nearby Crescent Town area. A City of Toronto bicycle station is located adjacent to the main Victoria Park Avenue entrance, providing a paid secure indoor bicycle parking area.HistoryVictoria Park Station was opened in 1968. The station was located at the time in the Borough of Scarborough, but the access footbridge across Victoria Park Avenue, built in the 1970s, extended into what was then the Borough of East York.Until 1973, the buses and the subway trains serving the station were in separate fare zones, and so the turnstiles and collector booths were placed between the bus bays and the subway platforms. When the zones were abolished, the layout was reconfigured to bring the buses inside the station's fare-paid area.
