Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 78 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 8,895 rental units, 3.4× the median for a Toronto intersection — 51 social or Toronto Community Housing.

The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jun 19, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 12,529 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 69% of the total, against 2,354 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (1,322 of 3,253). Evening rush dominates here: 1,740 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,240 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.1% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
On Adelaide St E between Sherbourne St and Princess St, 51 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2017 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 10,800 vehicles a day. Sherbourne St between Adelaide St E and Richmond St E measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 40 km/h (Oct 2017). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adelaide St E · Sherbourne St – Princess St · 51 m | Oct 2017 · 3 days | 10,783 | 41 km/h | 49 km/h | 54 km/h |
| Sherbourne St · Adelaide St E – Richmond St E · 71 m | Oct 2017 · 3 days | 7,905 | 31 km/h | 40 km/h | 53 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2019, with 13 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 16 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 10 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 10 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (11%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 13, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jun 13, 2013.
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
12 thefts from vehicles and 21 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 5.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 4 in 2023–2025, about 1.3 a year, against 4.1 a year before that. 58% of the vehicle thefts were from apartment-building parking; 57% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Mar 27, 2025. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself.
