Commercial Historic District in 1988. Photograph by SHPO staff, 2020.<br /> <br /> This six-story hotel stands at the intersection of Main and First Streets downtown and is constructed in 1928 of steel reinforced concrete, faced in brick. Its design was by Ellerbe and Associates of St. Paul, MN.<br /> <br /> Alonzo Ward, the owner-proprietor of the Ward Hotel, came to Aberdeen from Iowa in 1884, after a brief stay in Huron. Ward began his business activities in the city with a lunch room. In 1889 he opened a larger restaurant, The Star, and converted the lunch room into a bakery, which supplied bread to the surrounding area. This facility later expanded into a candy factory. Ward decided to build his first hotel in 1894, though it burned down in 1926.<br /> <br /> The Ward Hotel was notable. Among the guests which stayed in the 120 room hotel were President William Taft, Senator Robert Taft, Chief Justice Earl Warren, singer Marion Anderson, pilot Colonel Billy Mitchell, baseball Manager Billy Martin, and opera singer, Kirsten Flagstad. In 1935 the first area radio station began broadcasting from the sixth floor. Throughout its history, the Ward has been the home of local service clubs including: Cosmopolitan, Toastmasters and mistresses, Sertoma, Lions, Rotary, Kiwanis and the Exchange Club. It was also the headquarters for the area Republican Party, as Governor Leslie Jensen was Ward's son-in-law.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/sdnationalregister/">South Dakota National Register of Historic Places</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdnationalregister/54663397443/" title="Alonzo Ward Hotel, Aberdeen"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54663397443_cfd236f7cb_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Alonzo Ward Hotel, Aberdeen" /></a></p> <p>The Alonzo Ward Hotel in Aberdeen was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 and as part of the Aberdeen Commercial Historic District in 1988.
