Today

2796 West 21st still has its building from before 1946, dated 1940 by the City's record; 456 East 48th (1980), 3577 West 42nd (1979) and 910 West 8th (1986) have newer buildings, by the City's record; the City no longer lists 700 Cambie, 2972 Charles, 270 East 10th, 884 East 19th and 1901 Pendrell, so those buildings are probably gone (inferred).
