Today

362 East 40th and 967 West 8th still have their buildings from before 1946, 967 West 8th on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 6784 Dumfries (1970), 901 Jervis (1958), 3563 Lakewood (1974) and 2548 McGill (1962) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1180 Robson, 1761 West 49th and 1402 West 5th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
