Today

2454 Crown, 614 East 11th, 1624 Graveley and 1419 Pendrell still have their buildings from before 1946, 1624 Graveley and 1419 Pendrell on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 759 East 50th (1987), 3071 Graveley (2003) and 218 North Nanaimo (1967) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1365 East Georgia, 4728 Gladstone, 1168 Haro, 123 Powell and 1946 Quebec, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
