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 — 14-hour, Jul 7, 2026
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 1,194 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 123 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the south (774 of 1,520). Evening rush dominates here: 251 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:00 p.m., against 182 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
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 Stewart St between Portland St and Bathurst St, 111 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2022 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 37 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,300 vehicles a day. Portland St between Stewart St and Lane S of King and W of Portland measured slower: 16 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 25 km/h (Jul 2025). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Portland St · Stewart St – Lane S of King and W of Portland · 21 m | Jul 2025 · 3 days | 6,469 | 16 km/h | 25 km/h | 30 km/h |
| Stewart St · Portland St – Bathurst St · 111 m | Nov 2022 · 3 days | 1,306 | 26 km/h | 37 km/h | 43 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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

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
12 thefts from vehicles and six bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Apr 11, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Apr 11, 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.
