Today

88 East 22nd, 2317 Graveley, 2225 Mannering, 852 Nicola and 3649 West 5th still have their buildings from before 1946; 6264 Carnarvon (2008) has a newer building, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 1644 Balsam, 1557 East 3rd, 811 Hamilton, 521 Robson and 2500 West 1st, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
