VALLEY HO, Scottsdale AZ
   
 

A Phoenix landmark. I'm sure someone thought the name was incredibly clever.

The design has modern bluntness that would not be out of place in "North by Northwest."

The original decor was removed in the 70s, of course. It's still around with a seven-story addition. and and wisely bills itself as a midcentury-modern throwback.

That could mean "not painted since 1966," but not in this case.
