Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 29 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 2,278 rental units — two social or Toronto Community Housing.

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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 131 m away, ≈125 spaces; 143 m away, ≈26 spaces; 158 m away, ≈17 spaces; 159 m away, ≈14 spaces; 163 m away, ≈64 spaces; 166 m away, ≈77 spaces.
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, Mar 31, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 14,336 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 558 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,952 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 2,452 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
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 Sheppard Ave W between Seeley Dr and Downsview Dells Park Trl, 93 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2026 put the average speed at 53 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 62 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 67 km/h or more. That segment carries about 30,900 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sheppard Ave W · Seeley Dr – Downsview Dells Park Trl · 93 m | Apr 2026 · 3 days | 30,904 | 53 km/h | 62 km/h | 67 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 2019, with 13 collisions; 2025 recorded 6. 12 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 20 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 30% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 15, 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
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Oct 9, 2013.
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
12 thefts from vehicles and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 1.6 a year before that. 67% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 2, 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see York University Heights.
