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.

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, Dec 15, 2021
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,505 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 60% of the total, against 115 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (48 of 90). Evening rush dominates here: 1,038 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 886 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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 Davenport Rd between Albany Ave and Tollkeeper's Lane, 109 m from the corner, a 5-day count in May 2008 put the average speed at 33 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 300 vehicles a day. Howland Ave between Lane N of Bridgman and E of Howland and Lane S of Davenport and E of Howland measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Jun 2006). The reading is 18 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Howland Avenue between Davenport Rd and Bridgman Ave.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Davenport Rd · Albany Ave – Tollkeeper's Lane · 109 m | May 2008 · 5 days | 310 | 33 km/h | 45 km/h | 50 km/h |

Traffic calming
- Howland Avenue · Davenport Rd – Bridgman Ave
3 speed humps
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.
