Today

1218 East Georgia, 3517 West 3rd, 3709 Windsor and 1728 Yew still have their buildings from before 1946, 1218 East Georgia on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 3254 Charles (1998), 6305 Fraser (1963), 2526 West 34th (1991), 1925 West 43rd (1988) and 2205 West 6th (1973) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 343 Alexander, 666 East 50th, 774 East 63rd, 2839 East 65th, 972 East Pender, 1007 Pacific and 3624 West 14th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
