Today

4643 Blenheim, 1900 Main, 3528 Welwyn and 3130 West 10th still have their buildings from before 1946; 6669 Butler (1976), 3233 East 1st (1987), 1726 East 35th (2004), 3160 East 4th (1987), 3650 West 19th (2014) and 3281 West 33rd (1993) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1334 Harwood, 3627 Oak, 155 West 11th, 3195 West 23rd, 1979 West 35th and 939 West 8th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
