The house today
The City's list of addresses no longer has 1149 Harwood Street, so the building is probably gone (inferred); the nearest that still stands is 1117, five doors along on the same side, one of two left on the block.

Harwood Street, on the stretch it shares with the 1000 block, between Burrard and Bute Streets, West End: every door the 1940 directory lists on the block, the way it prints them, and what stands at each today. This house is marked in red.
