Today

556 East 48th, 237 East Hastings, 1154 Gilford, 440 Richards, 716 Smithe, 1585 West 15th and 2880 West 43rd still have their buildings from before 1946, 237 East Hastings, 1154 Gilford and 1585 West 15th on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 1711 East 36th (2012), 643 East 62nd (1988), 420 East Hastings (1981), 8656 Montcalm (1958) and 1851 West 36th (1978) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 500 Beatty, 1325 Comox and 2417 East 19th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
