Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 16 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 3,294 rental units — five social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 24 Shaw St (218 m, 200 units, 9 storeys, built 1989), which scored 87 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. Two buildings of the 16 scored below 70; the average is 86, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 50 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 3 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, Jun 21, 2018
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,741 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 39% of the total, against 1,138 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (206 of 482). Evening rush dominates here: 779 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 658 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 8 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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 Douro St between Crawford St and Shaw St, 54 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2019 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 48 km/h or more. That segment carries about 6,100 vehicles a day. Shaw St between Douro St and King St W measured slower: 29 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Sep 2021). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shaw St · Douro St – King St W · 45 m | Sep 2021 · 3 days | 2,656 | 29 km/h | 37 km/h | 40 km/h |
| Douro St · Crawford St – Shaw St · 54 m | Sep 2019 · 3 days | 6,124 | 37 km/h | 44 km/h | 48 km/h |
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
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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Seven thefts from vehicles and 18 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 2.5 a year. 100% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 78% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 7 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (7) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 2, 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see West Queen West.
