Today

777 Burrard, 3879 Dunbar, 976 East 23rd, 2787 East Pender, 650 Kingsway, 3863 West 21st and 2753 West 29th still have their buildings from before 1946; 7731 French (1988) and 1205 West 10th (1958) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 921 Drake, 110 East 8th, 1529 East 8th, 1628 Franklin, 652 Kingsway and 110 Victoria Drive, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
