Today

6626 Angus Drive, 766 East 31st, 2128 Grant, 2049 Semlin Drive, 3857 West 10th and 2576 West 15th still have their buildings from before 1946; 665 East 28th (1993), 885 East 31st (1995) and 1020 Harwood (1988) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1275 Barclay, 942 Broughton, 894 Bute, 269 East 23rd, 1833 Haro, 1637 Harwood, 948 Jervis, 525 Richards and 686 West 8th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
