The
public art installed in this station are various perspective-cheatingtrompe l'oeil illustrations on the walls and the floors by Toronto artist Panya Clark Espinal. (See examples [http://transit.toronto.on.ca/images/subway-5119-22.jpg] and [http://transit.toronto.on.ca/images/subway-5119-23.jpg] ).Bus terminal and surface connections
Bayview station does not have an integrated bus terminal, but it is served by the 11 Bayview and 85 Sheppard East buses directly outside the station. A transfer is needed to connect to both of these routes.
Future expansion
No plans for future expansion are in the works. Access or link to Bayview Village is the only likely candidate for the growth of the station. The station is too close to Sheppard and Yonge to warrant a bus terminal at this time.
