Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
64 registered apartment buildings with 5,099 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, four of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 2.8× the median for a Toronto intersection.

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.

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, Nov 8, 2006
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 3,966 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 429. Most cyclists arrived from the north (68 of 68). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,299 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,344 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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
The City's counter on Donlands Ave between Memorial Park Ave and Cosburn Ave (93 m away) recorded an average of 47 km/h in its 2-day count in January 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 7,500 vehicles a day. Gamble Ave between Todmorden Lane and Donlands Ave measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Sep 2004). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Donlands Ave (177 m away, 40 km/h limit), 7.2% of the 175,303 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

| Donlands Ave · Memorial Park Ave – Cosburn Ave · 93 m | Jan 2020 · 2 days | 7,519 | 47 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 km/h |
| Gamble Ave · Todmorden Lane – Donlands Ave · 159 m | Sep 2004 · 3 days | 907 | 39 km/h | 48 km/h | 54 km/h |

Donlands Ave (northbound), 299 Lesmount Avenue · 175,303 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
Toronto Police place seven thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 71% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Oct 1, 2025. 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.
