Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are seven RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 250 rental units. The nearest is 25 Villa Rd (602 m, 34 units, 3 storeys, built 1960), which scored 91 out of 100 at its July 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation.

The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 9 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue.

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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
| Green P car park | Distance | Spaces | Peak occupancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3239-3243 Lake Shore Blvd W · Surface | 1.7 km | 24 | 51% (Q1 2026) |
| 5 Colonel Samuel Smith Park Drive · Surface | 1.7 km | 52 * | — |
Nearest lots: 83 m away, ≈10 spaces; 91 m away, ≈560 spaces; 97 m away, ≈31 spaces; 111 m away, ≈26 spaces; 130 m away, ≈566 spaces; 138 m away, ≈19 spaces.
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, Oct 4, 2017
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 5,560 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 66 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,812 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,589 in the morning peak from 7:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 6.5% 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 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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 Brown's Line between Dover Dr and Jellicoe Ave, 43 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2025 put the average speed at 57 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 65 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 72 km/h or more. That segment carries about 22,400 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brown's Line · Dover Dr – Jellicoe Ave · 43 m | Sep 2025 · 3 days | 22,353 | 57 km/h | 65 km/h | 72 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.

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
Police records place no theft from a vehicle or bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025.
Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Sep 26, 2014. 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Alderwood.
