Contents |
Christie Station was opened in 1966, as part of the first phase of the Bloor-Danforth line.
The station was damaged in 1976 when a fire was set on board a lightly loaded late-evening train. Nobody was hurt, but the train was destroyed. The station's tiling took some damage and was replaced with a different colour (red instead of green) because green tile was not available for the trim (as shown on the station image).
Nearby landmarks include Korea Town and Christie Pits Park.
