Today

2128 Alberta and 3857 Granville still have their buildings from before 1946, 2128 Alberta on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 1225 Barclay (1989), 5327 Dundee (1981), 2776 East Georgia (1995), 5845 Inverness (1964), 5637 Laburnum (2018), 2644 Ward (1983) and 3518 West 16th (1996) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 2135 East 42nd, 2270 East 51st, 6262 Fraser and 814 Granville, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
