Description

I think someone forgot to put the sides on the street car shelter at Queen & Broadwiew. There are no sides and front. It's the most silly piece of architecture and is useless as the snow and rain blows in. Did someone forget to put the sides and front in? It's a very busy stop. Please help. Thank you.

I think this model is called a canopy. They were installed where the sidewalk isn't wide enough to permit side wall without impeding pedestrian traffic. Astral stopped installing them, I believe, after complaints. The solution was to not to put in any shelter at all at this type of location. There was a Fixer article about these shelters back in January: http://www.thestar.com/yourtoronto/the_fixer/2013/01/17/the_fixer_say_goodbye_to_onesided_transit_shelters.html
