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 — 8-hour, Dec 20, 2011
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,522 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 641 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 555 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 425 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 9.2% 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 15 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2011, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
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 Barrington Ave between Balfour Ave and Doncaster Ave, 251 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2012 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 43 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. Secord Ave between Palmer Ave and Eastdale Ave measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Apr 2022). The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Palmer St. (157 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.5% of the 7,536 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Barrington Avenue between Secord Ave and Lumsden Ave.

Traffic calming

4 speed humps
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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 5 collisions. 3 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 36% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (9%) — 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 4, 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 Oct 9, 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
19 thefts from vehicles and six bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Jun 28, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 28, 2026. 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.
