Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score

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 — 14-hour, Aug 25, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 5,761 northbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 18. Most cyclists arrived from the north (551 of 1,122). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 973 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 48% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (657). Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. 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 Isabella St between George Hislop Park Trl and Church St (198 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in October 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 41 km/h. That segment carries about 4,600 vehicles a day. Yonge St between Maitland St and Wellesley St W measured slower: 22 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 32 km/h (Aug 2026). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Isabella Street between Yonge St and Jarvis St.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Isabella St · George Hislop Park Trl – Church St · 198 m | Oct 2019 · 3 days | 4,601 | 33 km/h | 41 km/h | 45 km/h |

Traffic calming
- Isabella Street · Yonge St – Jarvis St
5 speed humps
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
2017 was the peak year (14 collisions), and 2025 closed with 12. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 23 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 21% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.

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 motorcyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 27, 2018. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.

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.
