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.

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).

Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jun 29, 2023
The east leg carries the load — 6,116 westbound vehicles, or 40% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 364. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,390 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 22% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,954). 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 is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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 Scarborough Golf Club Rd between Newark Rd and Ellesmere Rd (107 m away) recorded an average of 56 km/h in its 3-day count in July 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 64 km/h. That segment carries about 13,200 vehicles a day. Ellesmere Rd between Gander Dr and Chancellor Dr measured slower: 49 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 57 km/h (May 2026). At the school-zone speed sign on Ellesmere Rd We (132 m away, 50 km/h limit), 4.4% of the 107,539 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

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

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.
