Building access during construction
Thank you for your patience as the U of T Landmark Project construction continues.
Main entrance:
As of Mon June 19, the regular main entrance at 9 King's College Circle has reopened.
Due to construction, pedestrians and vehicles will not be able to access Gerstein from the south side, as Anatomy Lane is closed (lane between Gerstein and McMurrich Building/Medical Sciences Building).
The recommended route is to come from the north side, via the Wellesley Street entrance (between Gerstein and Hart House), and proceed along Hart House Circle to reach King's College Circle.
Accessible drop-off:
The barrier-free entrance on King's College Circle to Gerstein Science Information Centre is now open.
Once at the door, please select the intercom button and a member of staff will open the entrance. If this button is not accessible to you, please call 416-946-5227.
Wheel Trans or other accessible vehicles should drop off patrons outside this location, drop off signage is visible from the road leading up to the temporary barrier-free entrance. These vehicles should enter and exit King’s College Circle via Anatomy Lane. Access to Anatomy Lane is via southbound along Queens Park Crescent West.
Exterior Book Returns Drop Box:
The Book Returns drop box located at the entrance (beside the barrier-free entrance) is now available.
Please check back regularly for updates.
