Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are two RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 668 rental units. The nearest is 2777 Kipling Ave (863 m, 325 units, 18 storeys, built 1978), which scored 90 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation.

| 2777 Kipling Ave · Q Residential | 325 | 18 | 1978 | 90 · Aug 2026 | 16 | 863 m |
| 2757 Kipling Ave · Metcap Living Management Inc | 343 | 19 | 1976 | 96 · Nov 2025 | 64 | 1 km |
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: 463 m away, ≈643 spaces; 480 m away, ≈35 spaces; 575 m away, ≈28 spaces; 595 m away, ≈69 spaces; 620 m away, ≈116 spaces; 641 m away, ≈36 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, Aug 5, 2026
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 14,556 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 786 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (39 of 57). Evening rush dominates here: 2,736 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 2,218 in the morning peak from 6:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 9.9% 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. 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 Steeles Ave W between Walkway 2 W of Kipling and S of Steeles and Walkway E of Gihon Spring and S of Steeles, 229 m from the corner, a 3-day count in July 2026 put the average speed at 56 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 67 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 73 km/h or more. That segment carries about 36,400 vehicles a day. Gihon Spring Dr between Shockley Dr and Kidron Valley Dr measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Oct 2025).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Steeles Ave W · Walkway 2 W of Kipling and S of Steeles – Walkway E of Gihon Spring and S of Steeles · 229 m | Jul 2026 · 3 days | 36,409 | 56 km/h | 67 km/h | 73 km/h |
| Gihon Spring Dr · Shockley Dr – Kidron Valley Dr · 287 m | Oct 2025 · 3 days | 2,105 | 35 km/h | 42 km/h | 46 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 2023, with 15 collisions; 2025 recorded 11. 8 collisions (21%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 5, 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
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jan 23, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1386 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #799 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Jan 23, 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.
