Today
2222 Alma, 4851 Belmont, 2037 Collingwood, 1343 East 14th, 1712 East 35th, 66 East 40th, 165 East 59th, 2741 East 7th, 3067 Graveley, 3978 Ontario, 660 West 23rd, 3973 West 23rd and 2871 West 3rd still have their buildings from before 1946, 2222 Alma on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 825 East 20th (1992), 2776 West 21st (1993) and 3407 West 33rd (2018) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1974 Barclay, 3503 Commercial, 3421 Dundas, 712 East 50th, 1042 Haro, 1020 Melville, 1332 Robson, 695 Slocan, 4198 West 12th, 1809 West 49th, 1394 West 59th, 996 West 8th, 3651 West 8th and 1656 West Georgia, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred); for 3365 Venables, its page says what we could and couldn't match to today's buildings.

British Columbia and Yukon Directory, street section
The book of the Mackies
Every directory, as one book
The family book reads the Mackie name in each Vancouver directory we hold from 1901 to 1945: everyone printed under it at every address, their work from the name sections, who lived next door, and the page behind every line, to read here or save as a PDF to print or give.
We're opening orders soon. Join the list to be first in line; we expect about $29 a family.

Sources
Henderson's and successor city directories for Vancouver, read by us line by line: the street sections for 1905, 1915, 1925, 1935, 1940 and 1945, and the name section for 1930 and 1940 where we've read it (Vancouver Public Library, BC City Directories). Names are shown through 1945, as printed. Close spellings are grouped, as on the house pages, since a family's name was often spelled differently from one year to the next; one name can still be several families, and we join lines only where the first names or initials agree. Many Chinese, Japanese and other residents weren't named by the canvassers, so they can't be listed by name: their houses' pages say where. More family names under M. Want a name removed? Tell us.
