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.

| Warden North Lot - 705 Warden Ave · Surface | 1.5 km | 920 * | — |

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, Nov 2, 2024 (a weekend day)
The east leg carries the load — 6,906 westbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 289. Most cyclists arrived from the east (152 of 265). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,298 vehicles in the hour from 3:00 p.m., 38% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (941). Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 22 months 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
The City's counter on Danforth Rd between Birchmount Rd and Hibberts Dr (358 m away) recorded an average of 54 km/h in its 2-day count in June 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 63 km/h. That segment carries about 17,300 vehicles a day. North Woodrow Blvd between Zenith Dr and Dunlop Ave measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Oct 2024). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Danforth Rd (328 m away, 50 km/h limit), 2.5% of the 93,985 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| North Woodrow Blvd · Zenith Dr – Dunlop Ave · 297 m | Oct 2024 · 3 days | 954 | 37 km/h | 45 km/h | 50 km/h |
| Danforth Rd · Birchmount Rd – Hibberts Dr · 358 m | Jun 2019 · 2 days | 17,266 | 54 km/h | 63 km/h | 69 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 328 m
Danforth Rd (westbound) · 93,985 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
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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 Jun 13, 2015. 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 Clairlea-Birchmount.
