The primary entrance is located on the Sherbourne Street side of the office building at 425 Bloor Street East. An unmanned second entrance to the east end of the platforms is on Glen Road, a small side street which runs north off Howard Street from the densely populated St. James Town. A pedestrian tunnel under Bloor Street and a footbridge across Rosedale Valley Road provide access to this entrance from Rosedale to the north.Artwork
In 2019, the artwork titled The Whole is Greater than the Sum of its Parts by Rebecca Bayer was installed as panels at various locations in the station at the platform and concourse levels. Using custom ceramic tiles, the panels consist of colourful mosaics arranged in geometric, triangular patterns. According to the TTC's Public Art page: "Sherbourne station is an important transit hub for the multicultural neighbourhoods it serves and this artwork intends to reaffirm the station as a shared place where the wider community interacts daily."Subway infrastructure in the vicinity
This is the only station that was located south of Bloor Street on the original 1966 line. Sherbourne is also uniquely deep underground, which required a section of the tunnel to be bored, rather than constructed using the shallow cut-and-cover method used for most of the line, west to Bloor–Yonge station.East of the station, the line crosses back under Bloor Street to the north side. It emerges from the tunnel to cross the Rosedale Ravine on a curving covered concrete bridge, and then returns underground just before Castle Frank station. The adjacent bridge that carries Bloor Street across the ravine, although built with provision for a lower deck as part of the Prince Edward Viaduct project, is at such an angle to the subway alignment that it could not be conveniently used. A conventional bridge was planned for the subway line, with a view of the ravine, but local objections forced the Toronto Transit Commission to enclose it in a concrete shell for noise abatement.
