Today

2612 East 40th, 309 East Cordova, 16 East Hastings, 1915 Haro, 2617 Ontario, 2576 West 2nd and 3725 West 35th still have their buildings from before 1946, 309 East Cordova on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 1247 Homer (1999), 2857 Kingsway (1971), 2229 Maple (1976), 638 Prior (1973) and 3903 West 22nd (2012) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 5569 Dunbar, 2424 Franklin, 1750 Haro and 677 Heatley, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
