Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Queen St W & Lansdowne Ave / Jameson Ave — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for Queen & Jameson, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed. The fixed views are the City's reference stills showing where the camera points in each direction.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
123 registered apartment buildings with 9,424 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 22 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 5.3× the median for a Toronto intersection.

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, Dec 11, 2021 (a weekend day)
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 3,288 westbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2,322. Most cyclists arrived from the west (78 of 119). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,214 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 50% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (811). Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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 Jameson Ave between Leopold St and Laxton Ave (149 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 9,000 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Jameson Ave (123 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 13,810 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Queen St W · Lansdowne Ave – Jameson Ave · 25 m | Nov 2019 · 4 days | 8,709 | — | — | — |
| Jameson Ave · Leopold St – Laxton Ave · 149 m | Mar 2026 · 3 days | 9,017 | 33 km/h | 40 km/h | 45 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 123 m
Jameson Ave (southbound), 190 Jameson Ave · 13,810 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

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. 3 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Aug 17, 2012.
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 two thefts from vehicles and five bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 60% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
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 Aug 16, 2024. 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.
