Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Eight registered apartment buildings with 1,607 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, two of them social or Toronto Community Housing — well below the median of 23. The nearest is 77 Finch Ave E (268 m, 438 units, 21 storeys, built 1985), which scored 100 out of 100 at its June 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 95, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 37 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 11 fire-code violations are open across them.

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, Jan 24, 2017
The north leg carries the load — 3,448 southbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 229. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,179 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,189 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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 Holmes Ave between Kenneth Ave and Dudley Ave (230 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2002; 85% of drivers were at or under 51 km/h. That segment carries about 800 vehicles a day. Doris Ave between Grandview Way and Northtown Way measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Jun 2025). The reading is 24 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Kempford Blvd (296 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 44,427 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Holmes Ave · Kenneth Ave – Dudley Ave · 230 m | Dec 2002 · 24 h | 801 | 41 km/h | 51 km/h | 55 km/h |
| Doris Ave · Grandview Way – Northtown Way · 334 m | Jun 2025 · 3 days | 14,390 | 39 km/h | 48 km/h | 52 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 296 m
Kempford Blvd (westbound) · 44,427 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

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Jul 25, 2018.
By year

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 37 thefts from vehicles and four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 6.8× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on May 9, 2026.
