Names

The lines for 925 West Georgia Street in the 1940 directory, as we read them, with its abbreviations; each opens its page at the Vancouver Public Library. The name section prints h for a householder and r for someone who lives at the address. *: some member of the family owns the property, to the best of our knowledge (the directory's own mark, printed from 1935).

The building today

The City's list of addresses no longer has 925 West Georgia Street, so the building is probably gone (inferred); the nearest that still stands is 900, on the heritage register, on the other side of the street, the only one on the block.
