On the right side of this image, you can see Toronto’s second Union Station. Today, Union Station is the largest railway station in Canada and occupies the entire block south of Front St. Between York and Bay Streets. Union Station was built during World War I to replace this older facility located west of York Street, sections of which dated back to 1873.
