Today

2404 Guelph, 5330 Joyce, 2855 Kitchener, 4105 Knight, 998 Thurlow, 1575 West 14th and 4524 West 14th still have their buildings from before 1946, 2404 Guelph on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 1345 Comox (1983), 4128 Inverness (1998), 1346 Pendrell (1951), 2107 Wall (1960) and 3470 West 43rd (1989) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 829 Smithe, 905 West 14th, 3804 West 19th and 1964 West 45th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
