Today

640 East 30th, 5790 Hudson, 1533 Maple and 5584 Tyne still have their buildings from before 1946; 2954 Charles (1967), 1212 Howe (1989), 813 West 18th (1998) and 3216 West 7th (1988) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 717 East Cordova, 1148 Thurlow, 1325 West 15th, 2109 West 35th, 101 West 7th and 1986 West 8th, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
