Today

261 East Pender, 1975 Turner and 4208 West 11th still have their buildings from before 1946; 195 East 20th (1984) and 846 East Pender (1979) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 447 Dunsmuir, 214 East Pender, 151 Keefer, 300 Keefer, 504 Richards and 1106 Robson, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
