DescriptionThe Lewises' house was the first house built in University Heights #1. When the subdivision was being laid out, Lewis reportedly purchased the least desirable piece of property in order to show what could be done. He and his wife, Mabel, built this 15 room Tudor style house. This photograph, taken looking north, shows the garden and pergola. The stable is on the left, and the pond is beyond the line of trees.
