Unfortunately, the Street View of this intersection today is too murky to see any real detail...

WOW, thanks for identifying the location of that photo, Scott! I'm very glad you did, because the company I work for is located in the small office park at Holt Ave & the North side of the 10 fwy. In the 1938 photo, the building site would be at the top of the small hill at the NE corner of Holt & Hwy 99. Today, the the Holt Ave offramp for the Westbound 10 cuts through a part of that hill.
