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, May 12, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 5,973 eastbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 502. Most cyclists arrived from the east (445 of 909). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,098 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (976). Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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 Durie St between George Chater Parkette Trl and Colbeck St (250 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 1,100 vehicles a day. Bloor St W between Durie St and Windermere Ave measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Apr 2026). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Runnymede Rd (367 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.0% of the 50,493 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority. 14 speed humps slow traffic on Durie Street between Bloor St W and Annette St (installed 2025).

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
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jun 29, 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 one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.
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 Aug 2, 2020. 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 Runnymede-Bloor West Village.
