Precision scope
City of Toronto One Address Repository Land address point for 151 Front St W, the address Telehouse Canada gives for this data centre; the catalogue says points are positioned within the parcel or the building footprint. Used as the campus locator for the multi-tenant carrier-hotel building: it locates the building's civic address, not a floor, suite or surveyed building centre, and does not show where in the building any data hall lies.
Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported

The City of Toronto publishes no positional accuracy for One Address Repository points; the catalogue states only that points lie within the parcel or the building footprint, and the footprint and parcel were not retrieved.

Geometry evidence
073e9a8a

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.

An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
