Summerhill Station opened on March 30, 1954 as part of the original stretch of the Yonge line, and it remains one of the quieter, more understated stations in midtown. Tucked just north of the upscale Summerhill neighbourhood, it primarily serves local residents, with a steady flow of commuters heading to and from the surrounding tree-lined streets, heritage homes, and small boutique shops. The station has a calm, almost residential feel—especially compared to the busier hubs farther south.
Architecturally, Summerhill keeps things simple, with a compact layout and straightforward entrances that reflect the TTC’s mid-century design approach. One of its most notable neighbours is the historic former North Toronto Station—the beautifully restored landmark now home to an LCBO—which adds a touch of railway history to the area. With its peaceful surroundings and close ties to the community, Summerhill stands out as a station that quietly supports daily life without the bustle of a major transfer hub.
