Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
15 registered apartment buildings with 1,755 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, two of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

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, Dec 17, 2022 (a weekend day)
The east leg carries the load — 8,234 westbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 432. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,329 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 176% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,206). Heavy vehicles made up 1.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 4 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 Ellesmere Rd between Gladeside Rd and Dundalk Dr (86 m away) recorded an average of 44 km/h in its 2-day count in April 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 59 km/h. That segment carries about 23,400 vehicles a day. Wye Valley Rd between Delbert Dr and Ellesmere Rd measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Oct 2021). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 9 speed humps slow traffic on Dundalk Drive between Ellesmere Rd and Antrim Cres (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.

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
2019 was the peak year (36 collisions), and 2025 closed with 24. 17% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 44 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% 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 Dec 28, 2013.
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 eight thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 75% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
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 Oct 28, 2024. 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 Dorset Park.
