Today

1993 Charles, 1423 East 11th and 127 West 21st still have their buildings from before 1946, 1423 East 11th on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 445 East 19th (1989), 505 East 47th (1997), 403 West 19th (2011), 1001 West Broadway (1989) and 1791 William (2017) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 472 Alexander, 3681 Cameron, 1728 Comox, 1450 East 5th, 1151 Kingsway, 4224 West 10th and 1665 West 8th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
