Today

4830 Collingwood, 1524 East 13th, 3391 West 19th, 2771 West 32nd and 2846 West 38th still have their buildings from before 1946; 5601 Culloden (2012), 1735 East 37th (2010), 4778 Victoria Drive (1966), 3439 West 11th (1993), 1540 West 2nd (2001) and 3806 West 36th (1985) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 337 Dunsmuir, 4760 Elgin, 1165 Harwood, 2767 Kingsway and 1147 West Hastings, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
