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 — 8-hour, Apr 27, 2017
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 3,293 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 1,012 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,283 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 896 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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 Sentinel Rd between Four Winds Dr and Finch Corridor Trl, 52 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in June 2017 put the average speed at 49 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 58 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 64 km/h or more. That segment carries about 12,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sentinel Rd · Four Winds Dr – Finch Corridor Trl · 52 m | Jun 2017 · 24 h | 12,068 | 49 km/h | 58 km/h | 64 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
The worst year was 2016, with 13 collisions; 2025 recorded 3. 8 collisions (11%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 20 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 27% 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, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Feb 27, 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
77 thefts from vehicles and eight bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 14× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 14 in 2023–2025, about 4.7 a year, against 10.1 a year before that. 77% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 75% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 3 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 10, 2026.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 77 | 13 | 3 | street/outdoor (59), apartment parking (17) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 10, 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see York University Heights.
