Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are four RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 611 rental units — one social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 75-85 Silver Springs Blvd (590 m, 88 units, 9 storeys, built 1978), which scored 91 out of 100 at its October 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 22 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 6 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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 61 m away, ≈80 spaces; 74 m away, ≈112 spaces; 94 m away, ≈47 spaces; 96 m away, ≈4 spaces; 120 m away, ≈28 spaces; 133 m away, ≈3 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, Jun 11, 2024
No single direction dominates: each approach carried between 11,598 and 13,977 vehicles. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,259 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 4,497 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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 most recent midblock count on Kennedy Rd between Kennedy Parkette Trl and Finch Ave E (86 m away, Sep 2019) recorded volume only — about 17,637 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kennedy Rd · Kennedy Parkette Trl – Finch Ave E · 86 m | Sep 2019 · 7 days | 17,637 | — | — | — |
| Finch Ave E · Kennedy Rd – Milliken Blvd · 97 m | Oct 2011 · 3 days | 38,429 | — | — | — |
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 2019, with 90 collisions; 2025 recorded 59. 90 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 53 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 15 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 26 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 29, 2026.

Exposure-adjusted: 11.7 collisions per year per 10,000 daily vehicles, using the latest 14-hour count.

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. 1 pedestrian and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Jun 29, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 5.
By year

| Involving a motorcyclist | 1 | |
| In darkness | 1 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 5 | latest Jun 29, 2023 |
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
Three thefts from vehicles and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Oct 29, 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.
