In
downtown Phoenix yesterday and grabbed this shot of the former Westward
Ho Hotel. My first home was at second St. & McKinley. We lived in
the back of my father's hat shop. The hotel was easily visible from our
storefront.
After
the hotel closed in 1980, the new owners converted the building into a
subsidized housing complex for the elderly and mobility impaired.
Currently, the facility houses as many as 320 residents in 289 rooms
which were recently renovated to make them more accessible for apartment
residents.
