Description	In 1904, the Lewises built a 15-room Tudor style home in University Heights #1. Their Arts and Crafts living room featured prominent ceiling beams and some pieces of mission style furniture. The moose head and the bear skin rugs reflect Edward Gardner Lewis' interest in the west. The Art Nouveau figure on the newel post is very similar to statues in the Woman's Magazine Building and made have been made by sculptor William Bailey. The decorative pieces on the mantle may have been made at the Art Academy. The Lewises' library is just visible through the doorway on the left.
