Today

804 East 21st, 2964 East 2nd, 2603 Main, 1516 Powell, 3565 Triumph and 1905 West 2nd still have their buildings from before 1946, 1516 Powell and 3565 Triumph on the Vancouver Heritage Register; the City no longer lists 1733 Arbutus, 333 West 16th, 3027 West 28th and 1917 West 3rd, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
