Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
30 registered apartment buildings with 3,006 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them 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

Nearest lots: 75 m away, ≈46 spaces; 79 m away, ≈147 spaces; 110 m away, ≈3 spaces; 117 m away, ≈2 spaces; 154 m away, ≈56 spaces; 157 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, Nov 29, 2025 (a weekend day)
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 13,967 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 390. Most cyclists arrived from the south (37 of 61). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,425 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 16% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (2,085). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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
The City's counter on Victoria Park Ave between Ivordale Cres and Combermere Dr (20 m away) recorded an average of 50 km/h in its 24-hour count in February 2005; 85% of drivers were at or under 64 km/h. That segment carries about 36,600 vehicles a day. Combermere Dr between Victoria Park Ave and Pinemore Cres measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Nov 2012). The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Victoria Park Ave · Ivordale Cres – Combermere Dr · 20 m | Feb 2005 · 24 h | 36,598 | 50 km/h | 64 km/h | 71 km/h |
| Combermere Dr · Victoria Park Ave – Pinemore Cres · 121 m | Nov 2012 · 24 h | 748 | 32 km/h | 39 km/h | 43 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
2016 was the peak year (28 collisions), and 2025 closed with 21. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 28 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 16% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 3% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 19, 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. All of them involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrians or cyclists. The most recent was on Jan 20, 2022. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 2 | #450 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 3 | latest Jan 20, 2022 |
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
Toronto Police place eight thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 50% 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 Aug 16, 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 Wexford/Maryvale.
