Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 20 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,315 rental units — three social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 220 Delaware Ave (234 m, 16 units, 4 storeys, built 1930), which scored 79 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation.

The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 38 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 1 fire-code violation is 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 — 14-hour, Jun 25, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,361 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 30% of the total, against 4,895 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (2,790 of 5,609). Evening rush dominates here: 1,798 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,605 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 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 Ossington Ave between Northumberland St and Leeds St, 181 m from the corner, a 7-day count in June 2022 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 12,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bloor St W · Carling Ave – Ossington Ave · 43 m | Sep 2019 · 7 days | 7,798 | — | — | — |
| Ossington Ave · Northumberland St – Leeds St · 181 m | Jun 2022 · 7 days | 12,078 | 41 km/h | 49 km/h | 54 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
The worst year was 2017, with 45 collisions; 2025 recorded 32. 38 collisions (12%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 45 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 27 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 12 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 23, 2026.
By year
Exposure-adjusted: 14.8 collisions per year per 10,000 daily vehicles, using the latest 14-hour count.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Of the four serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 1 pedestrian, 2 cyclists and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. 2 of the 4 happened in darkness — 50%, about the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Dec 10, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 7.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 4 | #21 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 1 | #55 of 319 |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #190 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 2 | #4 of 271 |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 1 | |
| In darkness | 2 | 50% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 7 | latest Dec 10, 2024 |
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

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Sep 20, 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.
