Dundas Station opened in 1954 as part of the original stretch of the Yonge subway line from Union to Eglinton Station.
Dundas is the only station in Toronto where the northbound and southbound platforms are in separate fare-paid areas, owing to the constrained space and difficult geology at this location. Separate street entrances had to be used for each direction until the Eaton Centre was built, at which time a tunnel was constructed under the tracks outside the fare-paid areas, which is considered the third level. If on the wrong platform, a passenger can take a transfer from the transfer machines available on the platform, exit the station, and re-enter the station on the other platform by showing the collector at the booth the transfer obtained.
Is there other puplic transportation in the area?: Yes
What level is the station?: Below street level
