## Transit and Park Infrastructure

Eighteen transit stops are mapped within Thornton Woods, including locations along Thornton Boulevard, Adelaide Street, and King Street. These stops indicate a grid-like coverage of public transit access, although the data does not specify which bus routes serve these points or their operational frequency during peak hours.

Seven parks are named in the locality, including Thornton Park, McLaughlin Park, and Dundee Park. These green spaces offer recreational areas for residents, yet the mapping lacks details on amenities such as playgrounds, sports fields, or maintenance status that would define their utility for daily neighborhood use and leisure activities.

## The strongest counter-case

The mapped amenity data confirms point presence but does not establish service frequency, route connectivity, or catchment quality for residents. Sources:
