This is your nearest subway stop! Simply walk up Margueretta (turn right out of the alley) to Bloor. Turn left and cross at the crosswalk. Keep going straight and there's your closest entrance (you need a Presto card). If you don't have Presto, go to the Lansdowne entrance (instead of walking straight at the crosswalk, keep going left to Lansdowne, then turn right).
