Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 32 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,517 rental units — eight social or Toronto Community Housing.

Three buildings of the 32 scored below 70; the average is 85, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 17 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 3 fire-code violations are open across them.

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, Dec 5, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 2,594 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 4 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 909 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 812 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. 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 Harrison St between Shaw St and Lane W of Shaw and N of Harrison, 180 m from the corner, a 3-day count in February 2020 put the average speed at 29 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 35 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 39 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,500 vehicles a day. Ossington Ave between Foxley St and Lane N of Foxley and W of Ossington measured slower: 25 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Sep 2025). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Ossington Ave (29 m away, 30 km/h limit), 22% of the 138,457 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Harrison Street between Dovercourt Rd and Ossington Ave (installed 2025).

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 2019, with 6 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 5 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection.

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 reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
One theft from a vehicle and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025.
