The Toronto Bus Terminal, located at 610 Bay Street (just north of Dundas Street ), is a Terminal in Downtown Toronto for intercity Bus es. It is one Block west of Dundas Subway Station , and connected to it underground via the PATH Network . It is also about the same distance from St. Patrick Station . The bus platforms are located on the north side of the building on Edward Street, and a small side entrance is on the west side of the building on Elizabeth Street, connected to the main concourse area on Bay Street by a corridor behind the bus platforms. HISTORY Built in the 1930 s, the Art-Deco style terminal was home base for then-TTC-owned interurban bus service or Gray Coach . The terminal consists of two buildings, the main one on the east side of Elizabeth Street. Nearby landmarks include the Toronto Eaton Centre , the Atrium On Bay , the Hospital For Sick Children , and the Toronto City Hall and Nathan Phillips Square . It is also within walking distance to Chinatown . The terminal is a two-storey-high historic building. Around 1990 , the building was renovated by demolishing the internal walls, keeping the external walls intact. Unlike TTC bus terminals, the terminal has the form of a traditional bus terminal, with traditional, clearly numbered separate bus platforms for each bus route.
