Today

5060 Manor, 4554 Prince Albert, 715 Victoria Drive and 3408 West 31st still have their buildings from before 1946; 2531 Adanac (1993), 8112 Chester (1971), 790 East Hastings (1957) and 3034 West 3rd (1988) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 124 East 15th, 2440 Heather, 4173 Main, 208 Union and 308 West Georgia, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
