History
Prior to construction of the dedicated right-of-way, the terminus of the 512 St. Clair route had been at the Keele Loop, just north of St. Clair Avenue where Weston Road merges with Keele Street.
The old loop was closed and service began to the new loop in 1981. Signs on westbound 512 St. Clair streetcars still indicate Keele as the destination, when they are actually coming to Gunns.
Services
A small building provides washroom facilities for TTC operators. There is a platform and upgraded new design shelter for people waiting for streetcars, while bus passengers have a regular bus shelter.
As well as being the terminus for the 512 St. Clair streetcar, the loop is the easterly terminus of bus route 71A Runnymede which provides service farther west along St. Clair Avenue and down to Runnymede Station.
