Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
88 registered apartment buildings with 9,982 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, two of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 3.8× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 85 Lawton Blvd (29 m, 87 units, 10 storeys, built 1959), which scored 95 out of 100 at its July 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 88 scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 203 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 34 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 15, 2012
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 626 southbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 142. Most cyclists arrived from the north (79 of 121). Morning rush is the busier period: 260 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 131 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 10.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 14 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2012, 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 Walmsley Blvd between Baker Ave and Oriole Pkwy (249 m away) recorded an average of 26 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 34 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. Lawton Blvd between Walmsley Blvd and Duggan Ave measured slower: 25 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 33 km/h (Nov 2022). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Yonge St (155 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.8% of the 71,266 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Walmsley Boulevard between Oriole Pkwy and Lawton Blvd.

4 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.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 25, 2011.
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 two thefts from vehicles and five bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 60% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.
By year

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Mar 6, 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.
