Morphology
The noun phrase 'west side' is a straightforward compositional combination of 'west' (direction) + 'side' (part or face of something), so its meaning is directly derivable from the constituents. This adj+noun spatial pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows basic English composition rules, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
West side is the part of a place that faces west. Think of west as the direction where the sun sets and side as one part of a city, mountain, or building, so the phrase means 'the area toward the west' and tells you which direction that part is.
