Crisp piece of modernism. The fact that the style was cheap didn't hurt.

Judging from the style of architecture on the site today, it's been down for quite some time.

(Note: The new building wasn't built on the same location as the motel - it's hugging the corner, which was a parking lot. Hence the different position of the tower in the background - or so I hope; I can't find the postcard at the moment, and can only assume it had an address I looked up on Google. For that matter, I can't find the postcard anywhere on the internet. More detail and questions than you probably wanted.)
