WESTWOOD MOTEL
From 1953 to 1968, 7525 Wayzata Blvd. was the site of the U-shaped Westwood Motel. A 1954 ad promised that rooms would be heated, and had TV sets.
Until at leasst 1965, the owner was Henry A. Walch. Walch may have had something to do with Hoben Motors. In 1967, the name Arthur G. Larson shows up in the tax records.
EMBERS
In 1969 or so the motel was demolished and an Embers Restaurant was built.
The December 2003 directory lists it as Embers America-Sophie’s.
NEW BUILDING
The building at this location now was built in 2007.
- In 2010 it was occupied by Westwood Hills Dialysis, owned by DaVita Home Hemodialysis.
- In 2024 it was the home of Brunton Architects and Engineers, which was formed by Corey Brunton in 2007.
