Tim Hortons - Theres a mini-store there. They carry their regular drinks & donuts, but don't look for sandwiches. This store is a quick in and out operation and they do a pretty good job of keeping the lines moving. So line up, have your money ready, make your order and move along, there are a lot of people who need their caffiene fix before they get to work.

2007-11-16 08:15:38   There's a plaque on the subway platform that states "In 1830 John Finoch Leased the Inn "The Bird in the Hand", on the west side of what is now Yonge Street just north of Finch Avenue, frm John Montgomery. Later he purchased a lot on the northeast corner and built a two storey frame hotel. "Finch's Hotel" was operated by many innkeepers until 1873, when it was demolished. During its early years, a travelling circus performed on the grounds.

The original settlemanet had begun in 1797, when Jacob Cummer, from Pennsylvania, acquired land in the area, his son, John, later owned a farm at the northwest corner of Yonge and Finch." —AmirSyed
