Today

483 East 43rd, 1906 Haro, 3292 Quebec, 1180 West 15th, 1861 William and 2837 Woodland Drive still have their buildings from before 1946; 136 East 37th (1988), 2078 East 44th (1996), 356 East 6th (1967) and 2236 Nanaimo (1974) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 314 Cambie, 190 East 10th, 2102 Ontario, 885 Thurlow and 1121 West Pender, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred); for 1185 Haro, its page says what we could and couldn't match to today's buildings.
