Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
84 registered apartment buildings with 8,777 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 55 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 3.7× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 155 Sherbourne St (118 m, 301 units, 16 storeys, built 1973), which scored 88 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 84 scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm.

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, Jun 19, 2024
The east leg carries the load — 6,821 westbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 2,947. Most cyclists arrived from the north (1,717 of 3,716). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,716 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 19% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (1,439). Trucks and buses were 5.8% 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 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
The City's counter on Sherbourne St between Shuter St and Dundas St E (313 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 41 km/h. That segment carries about 10,100 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Queen St E · Jarvis St – George St · 266 m | Mar 2021 · 7 days | 4,240 | — | — | — |
| Sherbourne St · Shuter St – Dundas St E · 313 m | Jun 2026 · 3 days | 10,145 | 32 km/h | 41 km/h | 45 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
2017 was the peak year (22 collisions), and 2025 closed with 11. 23% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 17 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 16% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 29, 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
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 cyclist were among those hurt. The most recent was on Jun 13, 2020. Going back to 2006, the total is 7.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 2 | #408 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 7 | latest Jun 13, 2020 |
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 from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place 12 thefts from vehicles and 18 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 5.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 24, 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.
