The building today
The City's list of addresses no longer has 1466 West 14th Avenue, so the building is probably gone (inferred); directly across the street, 1465 still has one from before 1946, one of three on the block.

Every directory, as one book
The book reads this address in each Vancouver directory we hold from 1901 to 1945: who lived here year by year, their work from the name sections, with the two people here in 1940 under other surnames whom this page doesn't name, the block around it, and the page behind every line, to read here or save as a PDF to print or give.
We're opening orders soon. Join the list to be first in line; we expect about $29 a house.
The City Archives search records for $25 a year searched. A hired house historian charges $300 to $550 or more.
