Even the Endy Mattress store at Sherway is more fun for children than this SC.

Ontario Government news release: Ontario Science Centre Opening Interim Location at Harbourfront Centre by Summer 2026

Can't wait for dozens of buses filled with students having to get in and out of downtown. I feel like theres a dozen vacant HBC boxes that could've been better situated.

Indeed, wasn't one of Ford's reasons for moving the OSC was to make it more accessible? I mean it was by the DVP, and close to the 401, with 2 higher level transit lines coming. Harbourfront has a narrow road in front. The Gardiner is frequently quite busy. I'm missing the plus here.

Edit: per @narduch below, we all strongly suspect ulterior motives in this. Just pointing out some of the glaring inconsistent messages

Exactly - realistically its the ONTARIO science center. They 'should' move it to somewhere way more transit oriented - specifically by school bus. Doesn't have to be downtown Toronto or connected to subway. Maybe look for land around York U or Vaughan
