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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jan 31, 2017

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 11,324 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 153 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,280 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,326 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 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Kennedy Rd between Sheppard Ave E and Bonis Ave, 343 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2026 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 56 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 63 km/h or more. That segment carries about 33,200 vehicles a day. Jade St between Lejune Rd and Earlton Rd measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Jul 2006). At the school-zone speed sign on Dempster St (335 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 21,532 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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

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.
