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: 42 m away, ≈57 spaces; 68 m away, ≈8 spaces; 105 m away, ≈195 spaces; 125 m away, ≈42 spaces; 128 m away, ≈836 spaces; 161 m away, ≈164 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, Sep 21, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 10,589 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 2,042 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (47 of 55). Evening rush dominates here: 2,064 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,671 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.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 3 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
On Kipling Ave between Coolhurst Dr and Redcliff Blvd, 232 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2025 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 23,200 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kipling Ave · Coolhurst Dr – Redcliff Blvd · 232 m | Apr 2025 · 3 days | 23,195 | 46 km/h | 54 km/h | 58 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

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 from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
