North Yonge 03 Sheppard 1968

 

Here, we see a model of Sheppard station, as planned in 1968. Note the difference in the bus terminal, using seven individual bus bays as in Islington and Warden instead of the island arrangement as it opened in 1974. According to the Globe and Mail on March 20, 1968, plans included two moving sidewalks 240 feet in length carrying passengers between the mezzanine and the bus concourses. These plans were shelved when the decision was made to extend the line to Finch.
