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: 47 m away, ≈31 spaces; 68 m away, ≈106 spaces; 78 m away, ≈11 spaces; 83 m away, ≈12 spaces; 109 m away, ≈120 spaces; 116 m away, ≈9 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 — 14-hour, Oct 22, 2024
No single direction dominates: each approach carried between 11,844 and 13,457 vehicles. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 4,879 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 10% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (4,434). 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 is 23 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 Lawrence Ave E between The Donway E and Greenland Rd, 322 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2020 put the average speed at 59 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 67 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 73 km/h or more. That segment carries about 36,900 vehicles a day. Don Mills Rd between Macklin Hancock Park Trl and The Donway W measured slower: 50 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 59 km/h (Apr 2026). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on The Donway E (263 m away, 40 km/h limit), 3.7% of the 74,774 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Don Mills Rd · Macklin Hancock Park Trl – The Donway W · 228 m | Apr 2026 · 3 days | 22,501 | 50 km/h | 59 km/h | 65 km/h |
| Lawrence Ave E · The Donway E – Greenland Rd · 322 m | Nov 2020 · 3 days | 36,921 | 59 km/h | 67 km/h | 73 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 263 m
The Donway E (southbound), 14 the Donway E · 74,774 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 2019, with 64 collisions; 2025 recorded 51. 80 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 52 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 16 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 24 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 22, 2026.

Exposure-adjusted: 9.3 collisions per year per 10,000 daily vehicles, using the latest 14-hour count.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
None of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. 2024 alone accounted for 2 of them. The most recent was on Dec 19, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 4. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 3 | #113 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 2 | #109 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 1 | 33% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 4 | latest Dec 19, 2024 |
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.
