Schulich ExecEd participants who prefer taking transit began taking the subway directly to the Executive Learning Centre on York University’s Keele campus, on Dec. 17.
The York University and Pioneer Village Subway Stations are part of an 8.6-kilometre, six-station extension to the Toronto Transit Commission’s Yonge-University-Spadina line (Line 1). This extension stretches from Sheppard West Station (formerly Downsview Station) northwest through Keele campus and north to the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre.
The new York University Station is located at the east end of the Harry Arthurs Common, just a short walk from the Schulich School of Business and the ELC. (See overhead view below)
