Today

2205 East 1st, 521 Garden Drive, 1025 Granville, 1489 McRae, 7432 Ontario, 3749 West 20th and 3279 West 8th still have their buildings from before 1946, 1025 Granville and 1489 McRae on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 3225 Austrey (1979), 2678 Dundas (1983) and 1796 West 15th (1997) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 295 East 41st, 101 East Broadway and 5855 Macdonald, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
