Mount Pleasant[2] is an LRT station under construction on the Toronto Transit Commission's Eglinton Crosstown line.[3] It will be located in North Toronto at the intersection of Mount Pleasant Road and Eglinton Avenue. It is scheduled to open in 2020.

Uniquely in the TTC system, this underground station's main entrance will occupy a former commercial building while retaining its existing exterior.[1] The building is on the northwest corner of Mount Pleasant Road and Eglinton. A secondary entrance will be just east of Mount Pleasant on the north side, replacing two small commercial buildings. A vent shaft will issue from the station just behind Eglinton Public School by Brownlow Avenue.

Destinations include Northern Secondary School, and the Davisville Village neighbourhood.

In a report to the TTC Board on 23 November 2015 it was recommended that stations on Line 5 Eglinton LRT should be given unique names.[2]
