The nearest is Dark Horse Espresso Bar, 18 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in February 2026.

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.
Washrooms & water
The nearest public washroom is Corktown Common Pavilion Washroom, 474 m away, open 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. A drinking fountain is 121 m away at Diamond Jubilee Promenade.

Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 37 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 5,065 rental units — 30 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 100 Mill St (133 m, 237 units, 11 storeys, built 2024), which scored 100 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 92, about the citywide norm.

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 — 14-hour, Sep 10, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 2,436 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 31% of the total, against 1,480 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 777 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 644 in the morning peak from 8:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 11.1% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
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 Cherry St between Lower Don River Trl and Distillery Lane, 350 m from the corner, a 3-day count in August 2026 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 37 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 41 km/h or more. That segment carries about 6,500 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Front St E · Trinity St – Cherry St · 95 m | Sep 2021 · 5 days | 4,278 | — | — | — |
| Cherry St · Lower Don River Trl – Distillery Lane · 350 m | Aug 2026 · 3 days | 6,522 | 26 km/h | 37 km/h | 41 km/h |
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 2021, with 9 collisions; 2025 recorded 8. 7 collisions (15%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. The most recent report on file is from Nov 24, 2025.

Exposure-adjusted: 5.8 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
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 Aug 17, 2021.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|

| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #533 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest Aug 17, 2021 |
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
Nine thefts from vehicles and 14 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.8× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Sep 24, 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.
