I believe all of these places still exist today only that not being the center of its region. Others were struck hard through times such as Zhapu being destroyed in the Opiam War.

Might not be complete, but here's a couple:

Wuchang - Later merged with Hankou and Hanyang to form Wuhan in 1927.

Songjiang - Annexed to Shanghai in 1958.
