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
| Green P car park | Distance | Spaces | Peak occupancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downsview Lot - 415 William R Allen Rd · Surface | 927 m | 632 * | — |
Nearest lots: 116 m away, ≈28 spaces; 179 m away, ≈30 spaces; 198 m away, ≈229 spaces; 319 m away, ≈37 spaces; 344 m away, ≈42 spaces; 349 m away, ≈163 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 — 8-hour, Dec 10, 2009
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 2,960 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 56% of the total, against 98 from the east. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 992 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 12% above the afternoon peak from 4:30 p.m. (885). Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2009, 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 Wilson Heights Blvd between Searle Ave and Brighton Ave, 142 m from the corner, a 3-day count in August 2023 put the average speed at 53 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 60 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 65 km/h or more. That segment carries about 8,800 vehicles a day. Waterloo Ave between Wilmington Ave and Shaftesbury St measured slower: 38 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 49 km/h (Jul 2004). At the school-zone speed sign on Tillplain Rd (166 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 1,220 vehicles logged in April 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wilson Heights Blvd · Searle Ave – Brighton Ave · 142 m | Aug 2023 · 3 days | 8,802 | 53 km/h | 60 km/h | 65 km/h |

Tillplain Rd (southbound), Opposite 55 Tillplain Rd · 1,220 vehicles logged in April 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.

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jul 11, 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.
