Today

2748 Dundas, 4504 Earles, 565 East 48th, 3586 Franklin, 5241 Hoy and 2508 Kitchener still have their buildings from before 1946; 2141 East 40th (2015), 2626 East 45th (1984) and 1027 Lillooet (1986) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1225 Davie, 849 East 10th, 3554 East Georgia, 1355 Powell, 2081 West 2nd, 2449 West 3rd, 1856 West 8th and 2160 Woodland Drive, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
