Royal Ontario Museum Subway Station - Toronto

A number of years ago the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) face-lifted a number of stations that were in dire need. One of the niftiest transformations was Museum Station which is at the ROM. I had some time to kill before a tri-campus mature student pub night between York, Ryerson, and Toronto universities. Great fun.

The image shows a bit of everything in cool replicas: Osiris Pilaster, Toltec Warrior, Wuikinuxv First Nation Bear House Post, Greek Doric Columns, and Chinese Forbidden City Columns - each repeated several times.

In future, I'll try to blip some individuals up close. Here is a helpful Wiki page on the station. Here is an interesting World Architecture News page. A well-done short video. The original concept artworks.
