It's right next door to the Carlton Motor Lodge.

I'm having trouble finding a specific building segment from the Biltmore to conform with this building. The architecture is certainly from the same streamline moderne school but I can't find anything from the Biltmore that matches up with this building. Also the Carleton predates what we would think the Schultheis' picture date would be (mid-late '30's) and the Carleton promotional material shows it being at 11811 Ventura. The Biltmore Motor Inn's address was 11827 which puts it west of the Carleton, nearer the corner with Carpenter, not east.
