Westward Ho, high-rise building in Phoenix, Arizona, United States

The Westward Ho is a hotel building in Phoenix, Arizona, completed in 1928 and now recognized as a historic landmark. The 16-story structure features Mission Revival architecture with curved arches and detailed exterior work, standing about 208 feet (63 meters) tall and once serving as Arizona's tallest building.

Construction began in 1927 and was completed in 1928, with work briefly interrupted before a Los Angeles company finished the project. The building's original name, Roosevelt Hotel, was changed to Westward Ho when Charles V. Bob took ownership in September 1928.

The name Westward Ho was adopted in September 1928 after Charles V. Bob bought the Pacific Hotel Company from G. L. Johnson, replacing the original Roosevelt Hotel name. Inside, the second-floor Turquoise Room hosted many wedding receptions, while the adjacent Thunderbird Room convention hall seated 1,600 for Phoenix's big events.

The Westward Ho occupies a full block on North Central Avenue in downtown Phoenix, at 208 feet to the roof. The building now houses 320 residents in 289 apartments for elderly and mobility-impaired tenants, so the interior is not open to casual visitors; the exterior and its 1949 rooftop tower can be viewed from the street.

In 1949 a 240-foot steel tower with a 40-foot antenna was raised on the roof so KPHO-TV channel 5, Phoenix's first television station, could broadcast; the antennas later served KXTC 92.3 FM in the 1970s and then became a cellular telephone tower.
