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.

Park washrooms, washrooms in City buildings and automated street toilets, with hours and status as the City publishes them (park washrooms are seasonal). Malls, shops and TTC stations are not included.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are six RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 944 rental units. The nearest is 22 Elkhorn Dr (632 m, 223 units, 5 storeys, built 1970), which scored 86 out of 100 at its August 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 18 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 2 fire-code violations are open across them.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leslie Lot - 2760 Old Leslie Street · Surface | 1.1 km | 102 * | — |
Nearest lots: 422 m away, ≈87 spaces; 522 m away, ≈51 spaces; 552 m away, ≈55 spaces; 572 m away, ≈90 spaces; 574 m away, ≈16 spaces; 577 m away, ≈160 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 29, 2020
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 865 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 38% of the total, against 82 from the east. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 414 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m., 15% above the afternoon peak from 4:00 p.m. (359). Heavy vehicles made up 0.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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 Burbank Dr between Sifton Crt and Hawksbury Dr, 207 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2024 put the average speed at 42 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 53 km/h or more. That segment carries about 6,900 vehicles a day. Citation Dr between Burbank Dr and Sorrel Crt measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Feb 2012).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Citation Dr · Burbank Dr – Sorrel Crt · 71 m | Feb 2012 · 24 h | 4,151 | 40 km/h | 48 km/h | 52 km/h |
| Burbank Dr · Sifton Crt – Hawksbury Dr · 207 m | Oct 2024 · 3 days | 6,865 | 42 km/h | 48 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.

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.
