The Wesley Building, also known as the Robert Morris Hotel, is a historic office building and hotel located at 1701-09 Arch Street at the corner of N. 17th Street in the Logan Square neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The original 6-story section was built in 1914-15, with an 8-story addition in 1921-22; the cornice of the original building can still be seen above the sixth floor.[1]

The building was commissioned by the Board of Home Missions of the United Methodist Church as offices and a hotel for the Methodist Church.[1] It was designed by Ballinger & Perot in the Gothic Revival style[2] and features intricate terra cotta detailing.[3] Located directly across Arch Street from the 58-story Comcast Center, the tallest building in Pennsylvania, the now century old structure was converted in 2012 to a 111-unit rental apartment building called "The Arch Luxury Apartments".[4]

The Wesley Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
