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.
Washrooms & water
The nearest public washroom is Macgregor Playground Washroom, 518 m away — currently listed as closed (maintenance/repairs); in season it is open 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. A drinking fountain is 208 m away at Columbus Parkette.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
25 registered apartment buildings with 2,795 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, eight of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 467 Roncesvalles Ave (278 m, 15 units, 4 storeys, built 1920), which scored 89 out of 100 at its July 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 25 scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 18 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 9 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, Mar 22, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 4,075 westbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,595. Most cyclists arrived from the west (119 of 256). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,352 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 27% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,066). Trucks and buses were 6.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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 Lynd Ave between Lane S of Dundas and E of Lynd and Dundas St W (21 m away) recorded an average of 29 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 38 km/h. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Marmaduke St (389 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.9% of the 10,693 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lynd Ave · Lane S of Dundas and E of Lynd – Dundas St W · 21 m | Jun 2013 · 3 days | 238 | 29 km/h | 38 km/h | 43 km/h |

School-zone speed sign 389 m
Marmaduke St (westbound), 30 Marmaduke Street · 10,693 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
2019 was the peak year (22 collisions), and 2025 closed with 12. 15% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 19 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 30, 2012.
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 two thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 2 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (2) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Apr 4, 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 Roncesvalles.
