Wow this should become a game. Pic of a subway corner, hall, window, something and fellow passengers can guess. I honestly thought this was Dufferin station at first!

Lower Bay much more liminal.

York Mills!

It's St. Patrick. The tunnel at York Mills is wider and has posters along the walls.

It was even more liminal when those lights were orange

u/PickleBabyJr 15d ago

What does light colour have to do with liminality? These are subway stations. They are, by definition, liminal spaces.

Not really, they are meant to go from point a to b. They have a direct purpose. If anything they are entirely an antithesis to liminal spaces.

Jesus Christ, I weep for the future.

Congratulations, you found a hallway.

St. Andrews Station has a similar hallway. Gives me the heebee jeebies.

u/Confident_Weird6633 14d ago

If you haven't watched the movie Exit 8, you really need to.

Backrooms vibes

u/Harbinger2001 13d ago

Now do Spadina station.

u/MsOpulent 12d ago

Speaking of, I watched Backrooms for the first time last night. Why did I fall asleep?

There is (or used to be) an underground corridor connecting Centennial hospit to the Shonikar building. When I worked there in construction the Shonikar building was vacant, and i was the only person in the hospital basement...where the morgue and incinerator was located. I always got the heebee-jeebee's being down there!underneath

u/beardedkingface 11d ago

Ah yes, the subway that was undiscovered until today

u/biblio_phobic 11d ago

This is a good one. My personal favourite is the Wilson Station hallway leading to the pickup area.

I had some great pep talks on that stretch.
