Aga Khan Park & Museum,[1] which had a working name of Ferrand, will be a stop on the Toronto Transit Commission's Eglinton Crosstown line. It will be located in the Flemingdon Park neighbourhood on Eglinton Avenue just west of the Don Valley Parkway.[2] It is one of 3 stations on the line which is proposed not connect to any bus route.[3] The station is scheduled to open in 2021.

Destinations nearby include its namesakes, Aga Khan Park and Aga Khan Museum.[2]

In a report to the TTC Board on November 23, 2015, it was recommended that stations on Line 5 Eglinton LRT should be given unique names.[1]

TTC staff evaluated the initial report and the proposed names and provided feedback and recommendations. A primary TTC concern was to avoid replication and redundancy with existing TTC station names. The proposed names are unique and are not likely to be confused with existing station names.
