| Nearest food premises | Distance | Latest DineSafe inspection |

| St. Simon Plasp · 24 Strathburn Blvd | 64 m | Passed, Sep 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
One registered apartment building with 16 rental units stands within a kilometre of the corner — well below the median of 23. The nearest is 73 Lovilla Blvd (427 m, 16 units, 3 storeys, built 1952), which scored 92 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation.
| Nearest buildings | Units | Storeys | Built | Score | LTB orders | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 73 Lovilla Blvd · Wedgewood Columbus Limited | 16 | 3 | 1952 | 92 · Aug 2026 | 0 | 427 m |
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: 44 m away, ≈71 spaces; 254 m away, ≈26 spaces; 372 m away, ≈31 spaces; 375 m away, ≈249 spaces; 395 m away, ≈16 spaces; 402 m away, ≈417 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 — 8-hour, Feb 14, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 537 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 165. Morning rush is the busier period: 282 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 174 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2023, 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 Strathburn Blvd between Melody Rd and Wallasey Ave (54 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 1,600 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strathburn Blvd · Melody Rd – Wallasey Ave · 54 m | Mar 2023 · 3 days | 1,603 | 33 km/h | 44 km/h | 49 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.

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