Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Six registered apartment buildings with 907 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, one of them social or Toronto Community Housing — well below the median of 23. The nearest is 750 York Mills Rd (717 m, 137 units, 19 storeys, built 1970), which scored 95 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 94, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 26 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 11 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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 60 m away, ≈64 spaces; 72 m away, ≈244 spaces; 104 m away, ≈366 spaces; 111 m away, ≈196 spaces; 142 m away, ≈103 spaces; 173 m away, ≈543 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 17, 2022 (a weekend day)
The west leg carries the load — 6,111 eastbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 630. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,795 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 190% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (965). Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% 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 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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
The City's most recent midblock count on York Mills Rd between York Mills Access Ramp and Upjohn Rd (48 m away, Sep 2014) recorded volume only — about 17,667 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| York Mills Rd · York Mills Access Ramp – Upjohn Rd · 48 m | Sep 2014 · 3 days | 17,667 | — | — | — |
| Lesmill Rd · York Mills Rd – Valleybrook Dr · 233 m | Apr 2009 · 3 days | 12,302 | — | — | — |
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
2019 was the peak year (28 collisions), and 2025 closed with 14. 17% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 16 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 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
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Nov 25, 2011.
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 one theft from a vehicle and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025.
