Apartment buildings nearby

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, May 11, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 1,127 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 83% of the total, against 230 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (354 of 645). Evening rush dominates here: 226 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 114 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). 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. 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
On Augusta Ave between Oxford St and College St, 75 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2023 put the average speed at 21 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 30 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 34 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,400 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Robert St (274 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.4% of the 15,276 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Augusta Ave · Oxford St – College St · 75 m | May 2023 · 3 days | 2,391 | 21 km/h | 30 km/h | 34 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
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Nov 7, 2010.
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
Ten thefts from vehicles and 14 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 2.4 a year. 100% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 36% of the bike thefts were from commercial premises — shops, offices and their lots. Since January 2026, 7 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 25, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 25, 2026. 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.
