Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 62 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 4,600 rental units, 2.7× the median for a Toronto intersection — six social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 159 Russell Hill Rd (364 m, 18 units, 4 storeys, built 1957), which scored 97 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 62 scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 74 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 43 fire-code violations are 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 — 8-hour, Feb 11, 2020
No single direction dominates: each approach carried between 3,013 and 3,423 vehicles. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 989 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m., 16% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (851). Trucks and buses were 7.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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 Spadina Rd between Ardwold Gt and Russell Hill Dr, 188 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2021 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 18,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spadina Rd · Ardwold Gt – Russell Hill Dr · 188 m | Oct 2021 · 24 h | 18,402 | 46 km/h | 53 km/h | 59 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.

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
Four thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 4 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (2), commercial premises (1) |
| Bicycle theft | 1 | 0 | 0 | street/outdoor (1) |
Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 14, 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Casa Loma.
