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 — 14-hour, Oct 23, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 2,302 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 1,523 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 584 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:45 p.m., against 511 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 months 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 Runnymede Rd between Morningside Ave and Deforest Rd, 168 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2009 put the average speed at 35 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 3,200 vehicles a day. Morningside Ave between Kennedy Ave and Runnymede Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Mar 2025). The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Windermere Ave (377 m away, 30 km/h limit), 5.3% of the 132,378 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

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.
