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 turned the hilly, swampy yard into a lovely garden with ornamental bridges and decorative stone structures. The Lewises' two dogs, Marley and Charley, appear in this photograph.
