TMU Station, renamed in November 2025 through a partnership between the TTC and Toronto Metropolitan University, first opened on March 30, 1954 as Dundas Station. Positioned at one of downtown Toronto’s busiest crossroads, it channels the constant movement of students, shoppers, workers, and visitors.
Stepping out onto Dundas Square, the city feels wide open—giant screens, street performers, festival stages, and crowds flowing in every direction. The other main exit pulls you straight into the Eaton Centre, where the mood shifts to the hum of escalators and the echo of thousands of footsteps.
With the rebranding to TMU Station, some of the station’s visual identity has changed, and I will return to re-photograph the area—focusing on new signage, refreshed elements in the concourse, and how people move through the space now. It’s a chance to document a familiar stop in a new chapter.
Despite the constant churn, the station still acts as a hinge between different versions of the city: the academic pulse of TMU, the commercial buzz of Yonge Street, and the spectacle of the square. It’s a quintessential downtown stop—restless, bright, and never the same twice.
