RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there is one RentSafeTO-registered apartment building — 397 rental units — it is social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 4000 Don Mills Rd (513 m, 397 units, 6 storeys, built 1980), which scored 95 out of 100 at its June 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation.

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
Nearest lots: 66 m away, ≈256 spaces; 128 m away, ≈104 spaces; 209 m away, ≈97 spaces; 221 m away, ≈206 spaces; 271 m away, ≈17 spaces; 295 m away, ≈61 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, Mar 25, 2023 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 3,617 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 218 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,284 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 670 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% 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 4 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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 Don Mills Rd between Memory Gardens Lane and Cliffwood Rd, 74 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2026 put the average speed at 48 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 58 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 64 km/h or more. That segment carries about 18,900 vehicles a day. Cliffwood Rd between Cherrystone Dr and Don Mills Rd measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 33 km/h (Apr 2026). At the school-zone speed sign on Cliffwood Rd (179 m away, 40 km/h limit), 5.1% of the 29,438 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

| Don Mills Rd · Memory Gardens Lane – Cliffwood Rd · 74 m | Apr 2026 · 3 days | 18,909 | 48 km/h | 58 km/h | 64 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 179 m
Cliffwood Rd (westbound) · 29,438 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
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.
