Downsview Park is an intermodal transit facility under construction on the University branch of the Yonge–University line of the subway system in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located on the south side of Sheppard Avenue West where the GO Transit Barrie line crosses, and is expected to open December 17, 2017.

The station was originally expected to be named Sheppard West and is still officially referred to by that name during construction.

Approval was given in 2010 for the station to be named Downsview Park, subject to the satisfactory resolution of negotiations between the Toronto Transit Commission, the City of Toronto, and the federally-managed Downsview Park related to property acquisition, and to rename the existing Downsview station to Sheppard West.

Downsview Park Station is a fully integrated multi-modal transit facility serving both the TTC and GO Transit trains. In contrast, other interchanges between TTC subway and GO Transit rail lines have separate structures for each agency. The TTC subway platform will be built underground on an east–west axis parallel to Sheppard Avenue West, and the GO Transit commuter rail station will be built at the surface on a north–south axis. (The GO Station is situated on the Barrie line.) An intermediate TTC concourse level will be located below ground between the two. GO Transit has committed to cost sharing at this station. Upon its opening, this station will replace the York University GO Station located a short distance to the north; that station will then be closed. A southerly extension of Bakersfield Street on the west side of the station will provide vehicle access and passenger drop off.
