Worth Avenue
Palm Beach, Florida
The “Fifth Avenue of the South”. Ultra-smart shops with world famous names. Overhanging balconies festooned with brilliant bougainvillea and intriguing vias and patios lend an old-world charm to this fashionable shopping center.

I was able to match up the North Arcade signage and we have a match (though Google Street View is ground level and I believe the postcard was taken from the third floor balcony across the street):

The green awning in the today’s picture is the white awning in the postcard, between the two palm trees.
