Today

777 Burrard, 1915 Haro and 1209 Jervis still have their buildings from before 1946, 1209 Jervis on the Vancouver Heritage Register; 169 East 24th (2001) and 6751 Kerr (1963) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 244 East 11th, 1003 East 64th, 1060 Hamilton and 136 Water, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
