The revitalization project includes restoration of many of the station’s heritage elements, creation of 160,000 square feet of retail space with the focus of bringing the best of Toronto’s independent retailers and restaurants to the station, and expansion of the GO concourses to accommodate the expected doubling of passengers by 2030. In April 2015, the new spacious 62,000-square-foot York Concourse opened to provide almost twice the space of the existing Bay Concourse to help get customers to where they are going faster and easier. In August 2015, the Bay Concourse was closed to undergo renovation.
Substantial completion has been delayed, and is now expected to occur in 2020.
