Valley Ho
This illustration was inspired by the Valley Ho Hotel. This cool jewel of modern architecture in downtown Scottsdale — designed by architect Edward Varney — was built in 1956. Hollywood celebrities flocked to the hotel in the ‘50s and ‘60s, but it had lost a bit of its shine by the 1970s. Happily, Westroc Hospitality purchased the property and reopened the Hotel in 2005 after extensive restoration, and the building is now as Mid-Century marvelous as ever.
