Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are three RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 364 rental units — one social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 5600 Sheppard Ave E (119 m, 120 units, 10 storeys, built 1970), which scored 94 out of 100 at its October 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation.

The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 16 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 1 fire-code violation is open across them.

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, Dec 11, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 7,032 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 31% of the total, against 4,183 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,215 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,735 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 months 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
On Progress Ave between Rosebank Dr and Orchid Place Dr, 194 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2005 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 59 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 68 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,800 vehicles a day. Malvern St between Sheppard Ave E and 75 Malvern St measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Dec 2024). The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Mammoth Hall Trl (294 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 21,563 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Mammoth Hall Trl (eastbound), 70, Mammoth Hall Trail · 21,563 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
The worst year was 2018, with 26 collisions; 2025 recorded 19. 42 collisions (24%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 21 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 16, 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 was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. The most recent was on Dec 12, 2018. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |

| All KSI since 2006 | 3 | latest Dec 12, 2018 |
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.
