Today

5 East 10th, 495 East 28th, 4054 West 31st and 4022 West 33rd still have their buildings from before 1946, 5 East 10th on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 1126 Barclay (1982), 2135 East 5th (1986) and 1265 West 13th (1968) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1830 Comox, 242 East 54th, 1046 Haro, 2535 Main, 1811 Pine, 843 Richards and 530 West 6th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
