Today

904 East 13th, 2548 East Pender, 4768 Little, 2601 Main, 3451 Quebec and 3759 West 12th still have their buildings from before 1946; 4882 Argyle (2004), 4443 Atlin (2011), 631 East 17th (2011), 1784 East 36th (1978), 3163 East 47th (1966), 175 East 55th (1996) and 3521 Walker (1979) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 876 Bidwell, 2257 Charles, 3190 Dunbar, 562 East 12th, 1595 East 33rd, 3158 East 46th, 946 Granville, 3285 Waverley, 2575 West 5th and 316 West Georgia, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred); for 3950 Oak and 456 West 17th, their pages say what we could and couldn't match to today's buildings.
