Broadview is a station on the Bloor-Danforth line of the subway system in Toronto, Canada. It is located at 90 Danforth Avenue and Broadview Avenue. It was opened in 1966. Nearby landmarks include 'Greektown', Riverdale Park, and the east end of the Prince Edward Viaduct.
Broadview is the north-eastern terminus of the 504 King and 505 Dundas streetcar routes.
In 2003, a renovation of the station began, adding an extra streetcar track, elevators to the platforms, and new signage. The elevators entered service on January 27, 2006, and the stairs from the westbound subway to the bus/streetcar platform afterwards. The next stage of the renovation is to build a stairway from the bus/streetcar platform to the eastbound subway platform.
