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 11, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 13,536 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 55% of the total, against 269 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the west (204 of 446). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,941 vehicles in the hour from 7:15 a.m. and 2,052 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 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 Parkside Dr between Garden Ave and Algonquin Ave, 311 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2026 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 30,600 vehicles a day. High Park Blvd between Indian Rd and Parkside Dr measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Dec 2023). At the school-zone speed sign on Ward 4 - S10 (372 m away, 40 km/h limit), 29% of the 80,033 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.

Ward 4 - S10 (southbound), Opposite 101 Parkside Dr · 80,033 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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 2024, with 27 collisions; 2025 recorded 12. 26 collisions (13%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 19 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low 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
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jan 1, 2007.
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
Three thefts from vehicles and four bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Feb 10, 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.
