History

Donlands Station was opened in 1966 as part of the original segment of the Bloor-Danforth line, from Keele Station in the west to Woodbine Station in the east.

The station originally had only a small structure covering the stairs and escalator to/from the mezzanine, but was expanded to the present configuration in the early 1980s. The fare-collection area was relocated from the mezzanine level to street level at that time.

Subway infrastructure in the vicinity

Between Donlands and Greenwood stations is a full grade-separated, double-track, underground wye junction, allowing trains from either direction to access the TTC's Greenwood Yard, their largest subway yard, which is on the surface south of Danforth Avenue.

Nearby landmarks
