Lansdowne is an underground subway station in Toronto . It is on the Bloor-Danforth Line of the Toronto Subway at the intersection of Bloor Street and Lansdowne Avenue. The station has side platforms and is used by an average of 19,250 passengers every day (2015).

The Bloordale Village shopping and bohemian district is nearby. There is a possibility to change to a bus line. The station opened on February 26, 1966, along with the Keele - Woodbine section . Because of the petty crime prevailing in the area, the Toronto Star newspaper called Lansdowne Station a "known problem area". GO Transit is planning to build a train stop on the route to Barrie around 200 meters away ; there should be direct access from the subway station.
