The nearest is John Gibson House, 122 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in July 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.

The nearest public washroom is Trinity Bellwoods Park North Baseball Diamond Washroom, 345 m away, open 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.; it is wheelchair-accessible. A drinking fountain is 224 m away at Trinity Bellwoods Park.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
29 registered apartment buildings with 2,360 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, eight of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 300 Shaw St (201 m, 32 units, 3 storeys, built 1966), which scored 90 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. Three buildings of the 29 scored below 70; the average is 85, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 41 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 4 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, Oct 14, 2021
Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 1,410 vehicles entering from the south to 1,597 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the north (614 of 1,137). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 485 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 37% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (354). Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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 Shaw St between Harrison St and Fred Hamilton Playground Trl (387 m away) recorded an average of 26 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 33 km/h. That segment carries about 2,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Ossington Ave (343 m away, 30 km/h limit), 22% of the 138,457 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shaw St · Harrison St – Fred Hamilton Playground Trl · 387 m | Jun 2022 · 7 days | 2,358 | 26 km/h | 33 km/h | 38 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 343 m
Ossington Ave (northbound), 293 Ossington Avenue · 138,457 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.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
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 six bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 1.3 a year before that. 50% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Feb 22, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Feb 22, 2026. 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.
