Today

1708 Charles, 1055 Cypress, 936 Granville, 1540 Salsbury Drive and 3212 West 13th still have their buildings from before 1946; 2460 Graveley (1990) has a newer building, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 193 East Hastings, 1006 Granville, 123 Powell, 1137 Robson, 1157 West 71st, 1223 West 72nd and 1259 West Georgia, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
