Around the corner
Food premises, public washrooms, child care and emergency services — distances are straight-line from the node
Restaurants & food
Toronto Public Health inspects 37 eating places within 300 m of this corner, plus 3 grocery and convenience stores; within a kilometre the count is 368 — 5.0× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is Maven Toronto, 4 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in August 2026 with 2 infractions noted.
| Nearest food premises | Distance | Latest DineSafe inspection |
|---|---|---|

| Bar Eugenie · 89 Harbord St | 37 m | Passed, May 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.

No City washroom within 1 km.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 64 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 4,571 rental units, 2.8× the median for a Toronto intersection — seven social or Toronto Community Housing.

Two buildings of the 64 scored below 70; the average is 88, 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 — 8-hour, Sep 7, 2005
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 3,332 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 62 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (557 of 848). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 911 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 977 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, 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
On Harbord St between Boys of Major Lane and Brunswick Ave, 155 m from the corner, a 7-day count in June 2022 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 43 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 48 km/h or more. That segment carries about 8,600 vehicles a day. Robert St between Barker Fairley Lane and Porretta Lane measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 35 km/h (Nov 2017). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Borden St (295 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.1% of the 16,108 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Robert Street between Harbord St and Willcocks St.

3 speed humps
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 7 collisions; 2025 recorded 0. 7 collisions (23%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 23% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (20%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jan 29, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 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
Ten thefts from vehicles and eight bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 3 in 2023–2025, about 1.0 a year, against 2.1 a year before that. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 38% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 10 | 2 | 0 | street/outdoor (8), commercial premises (2) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 16, 2023. 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 University.
