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 — 14-hour, Nov 2, 2024 (a weekend day)
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 8,039 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 4,567 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 1,611 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:15 p.m., against 1,188 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. 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
On Danforth Ave between Balford Ave and Warden Ave, 174 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2022 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 12,800 vehicles a day. Danforth Rd between Danforth Ave and Patterson Ave measured slower: 42 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 50 km/h (Jul 2024). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Newport Ave (398 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 21,754 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Danforth Rd · Danforth Ave – Patterson Ave · 71 m | Jul 2024 · 3 days | 11,973 | 42 km/h | 50 km/h | 56 km/h |
| Danforth Ave · Balford Ave – Warden Ave · 174 m | May 2022 · 3 days | 12,780 | 46 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 398 m
Newport Ave (westbound), 64 Newport Avenue · 21,754 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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2022, with 10 collisions; 2025 recorded 5. 10 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection.

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 4, 2008.
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
