Don Valley station

Don Valley is an underground Toronto subway station on Line 5 Eglinton in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located in the Flemingdon Park neighbourhood at the intersection of Don Mills Road and Eglinton Avenue.

Description
This station's main entrance is located at the southwest corner of the intersection with Don Mills Road. A secondary entrance is on the opposite northeast corner, with a new bus terminal stretching beyond that to Gervais Drive. The TTC bus terminal will have seven bus bays as well as on-street bus connections. An underground, accessible passage will link the bus terminal to the light rail transit concourse level, which will have retail spaces. The station will provide 30 outdoor and 30 indoor bicycle parking spaces. As with other stations on Line 5, architectural features include natural light from large windows and skylights, steel structures painted white, and orange accents (the colour of the line). The station's main entrance has louvres in the glass panels above the doors. Metrolinx predicted that the louvres "will be a well-known and a distinctive part of the transit destination's look". == Name ==
Name
During the planning stages for Line 5 Eglinton, the station was given the working name Don Mills. In 2015, a report to the TTC Board recommended giving a unique name to each station in the subway system (including Line 5 Eglinton). Thus, the station was named Science Centre to reflect its proximity to the Ontario Science Centre (similar to Museum station, which is adjacent to the Royal Ontario Museum) and to avoid confusion with the existing Don Mills station on Line 4 Sheppard. In April 2023, the Ontario provincial government announced plans to move the Science Centre to Ontario Place (near the opposite terminus of the Ontario Line). In June 2024, the government announced that the Science Centre would close permanently following an engineering report that cited a significant risk of roof collapse. On March 28, 2025, as a result of the closure, Metrolinx announced that the station would be renamed Don Valley to reflect the station's proximity to the Don Valley Parkway, the Don River, and the Don Valley itself. Other names considered for the station were Concorde, Industrial District, Olympia Square, Ferrand, and Don River. == Nearby landmarks ==

Don Valley is one of the Line 5 stations that was reported to have most excited developers. On April 3, 2017, Urban Toronto reported that the City's planning department's initiative for the intersection had been named Don Mills Crossing, while it would be accompanied by a plan for nearby properties, in 2018. == Surface connections ==
