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, Jun 13, 2019
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 2,362 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 67 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 945 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 571 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 8.1% 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 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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
On Paul David St between Orfus Rd and Bentworth Ave, 78 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2021 put the average speed at 40 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 1,300 vehicles a day. Orfus Rd between Dufferin St and Paul David St measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (May 2026). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Paul David Street between Orfus Rd and Cartwright Ave.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paul David St · Orfus Rd – Bentworth Ave · 78 m | Nov 2021 · 3 days | 1,318 | 40 km/h | 52 km/h | 59 km/h |
| Orfus Rd · Dufferin St – Paul David St · 237 m | May 2026 · 3 days | 6,256 | 35 km/h | 44 km/h | 49 km/h |
Traffic calming
- Paul David Street · Orfus Rd – Cartwright Ave
4 speed humps
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 15 collisions; 2025 recorded 7. 7 collisions (9%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 23 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 28% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 31, 2026.

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
24 thefts from vehicles and two bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Feb 6, 2026.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 24 | 4 | 1 | street/outdoor (17), commercial premises (3) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Feb 6, 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.
