Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
25 registered apartment buildings with 3,403 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, six of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 77 Rankin Cres (183 m, 121 units, 7 storeys, built 1992), which scored 92 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation.

The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 60 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 3 fire-code violations are 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 — 8-hour, Jul 30, 2014
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The west leg carries the load — 106 eastbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 30. Morning rush is the busier period: 32 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:30 a.m., compared with 29 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 8.9% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2014, not today's volume. 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
The City's counter on Rankin Cres between Erwin Krickhahn Park Trl and Paton Rd (39 m away) recorded an average of 31 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. Paton Rd between Campbell Ave and Lane E of Symington and S of Paton measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 35 km/h (Apr 2012). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rankin Cres · Erwin Krickhahn Park Trl – Paton Rd · 39 m | Jun 2017 · 3 days | 371 | 31 km/h | 40 km/h | 45 km/h |
| Paton Rd · Campbell Ave – Lane E of Symington and S of Paton · 99 m | Apr 2012 · 3 days | 639 | 28 km/h | 35 km/h | 40 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
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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
Toronto Police place seven thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 57% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 15, 2022. 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.
