One more West Wind Motel post.
This 2011 Streetview shows the original driveway and the parking lot in front of the motel pool seen in the old photo.
This more recent post card shows that small palm trees were planted around the pool. The 2011 Streetview shows that some of the palm trees are still there. The palm trees seem to match their post card locations in relationship to the old pool.
If you check Streetview before 2011, a Spa and storage shed business was using the site. If you check the next Streetview after 2011 which is 2013, the driveway and parking lot are gone and 45th St was extended through the site. The 45th St. extension seems to have happened at the same time the nearby In and Out burger was built. But two of the palm trees remain on either side of 45th St. So an old motel pool would be the reason why two palm trees seem to be inexplicably growing at that location. Also, I think the 7-11 building is still there. There is an old convenient store currently occupying that same footprint. But it has been remodeled a few times just during the years Streeetview was available. Here's 2016:
