TMU to have subway station named after it

Toronto Metropolitan University will soon have a nearby subway stop named after it, following a decision by the Toronto Transit Commission’s (TTC’s) board. The TMU Station name was approved as part of a partnership between TMU and the TTC. Toronto Star reports that TMU will be covering the cost of renaming Dundas Station, which is located on TTC’s Yonge-University line. A report produced by the TTC on the proposal to rename the station indicated multiple reasons for moving forward with the new name, including the history of its original namesake Henry Dundas and how the area around the station has been changed “dramatically” by TMU’s growth.
