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 — 14-hour, Oct 18, 2025 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 7,701 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 31% of the total, against 4,248 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 2,082 vehicles in the peak hour from 6:00 p.m., against 1,829 in the morning peak from 9:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.7% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
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 Dufferin St between Norton Ave and Ascot Ave, 173 m from the corner, a 3-day count in March 2026 put the average speed at 36 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 46 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 22,600 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| St Clair Ave W · Westmount Ave – Dufferin St · 45 m | Jan 2019 · 7 days | 7,676 | — | — | — |
| Dufferin St · Norton Ave – Ascot Ave · 173 m | Mar 2026 · 3 days | 22,605 | 36 km/h | 46 km/h | 50 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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 74 collisions. 59 collisions (11%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 74 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 22 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (4%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 19 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 20, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. 2 of the 3 happened in darkness — 67%, above the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Aug 3, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 8.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 3 | #68 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 1 | #101 of 319 |
| Involving a pedestrian | 2 | #68 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 1 | |
| In darkness | 2 | 67% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 8 | latest Aug 3, 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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Five thefts from vehicles and ten bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Apr 5, 2026.
By year

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Apr 5, 2026. 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.
