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, Jun 1, 2006
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 244 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 114 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 112 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 100 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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 Brookmount Rd between Queen St E and Lane N of Queen and W of Brookmount, 171 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in September 2010 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,000 vehicles a day. Dixon Ave between Brookmount Rd and Rainsford Rd measured slower: 29 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Sep 2010). The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Queen Street E (344 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 16,776 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Queen Street E (eastbound), 1903/1905 Queen St E · 16,776 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.
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
Nine thefts from vehicles and three bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 1.4 a year before that. 56% of the vehicle thefts were from house driveways and garages.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 9 | 1 | 0 | house driveway/garage (5), street/outdoor (3) |

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.
