Today

1221 Granville, 2991 Graveley, 4141 John, 2669 Trinity, 3442 West 11th and 3337 West 2nd still have their buildings from before 1946; 2295 East 45th (2007), 4496 West 14th (2013), 955 West 18th (1995) and 4664 West 8th (2014) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 580 East 12th, 1266 Robson and 217 West Georgia, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
