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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking

Nearest lots: 60 m away, ≈36 spaces; 131 m away, ≈121 spaces; 191 m away, ≈91 spaces; 268 m away, ≈609 spaces; 323 m away, ≈1,241 spaces; 354 m away, ≈12 spaces.
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, Nov 8, 2025 (a weekend day)
The east leg carries the load — 9,462 westbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 914. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,840 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 37% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,343). Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% 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 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 Duncanwoods Dr between Finch Ave W and Cherrylawn Ave (143 m away) recorded an average of 36 km/h in its 24-hour count in August 2004; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 2,800 vehicles a day. Ardwick Blvd between Brubeck Rd and Peterson Dr measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (May 2025). The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Ardwick Blvd (358 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.0% of the 10,418 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.

Ardwick Blvd (southbound), 74 Ardwick Boulevard · 10,418 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
2018 was the peak year (27 collisions), and 2025 closed with 14. 25% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 22 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 9% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. Both happened in darkness. The most recent was on Nov 25, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 2 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 3 | latest Nov 25, 2025 |
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 four thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
