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
Within a kilometre there are 59 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 3,221 rental units, 2.6× the median for a Toronto intersection — four social or Toronto Community Housing.

One building of the 59 scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 67 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 45 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, Apr 18, 2011
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 7,164 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 892 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (71 of 114). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,396 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m., 36% above the afternoon peak from 4:15 p.m. (1,767). Trucks and buses were 6.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2011, 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 Heddington Ave between Burnaby Blvd and Crestview Rd, 155 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in January 2013 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 44 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,100 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 Spadina Rd (400 m away, 30 km/h limit), 3.1% of the 10,633 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eglinton Ave W · Heddington Ave – Warren Rd · 19 m | Mar 2013 · 3 days | 13,056 | — | — | — |
| Heddington Ave · Burnaby Blvd – Crestview Rd · 155 m | Jan 2013 · 24 h | 1,127 | 32 km/h | 39 km/h | 44 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 400 m
Spadina Rd (northbound), 1053 Spadina Road · 10,633 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
The worst year was 2016, with 12 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 4 collisions (10%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (10%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 7, 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
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Oct 4, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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.
