C. returning with enthusiastic ideas for community improvement. A common practice was to extoll leading civic men and women in small local publications like the Do l! For Ogden (1923) pamphlet and the Ogden City and Weber County (1914) portfolio in which the contributions of Mr. Lewis are commemorated. (Many of the photographs in this survey are taken from these publications.) ~ohn IB66. S.

A large lamp- post clock (much like the one that stands on First South and Main Street in Salt Lake City) stood on the sidewalk before the store until urban renewal removed it in the 1960's. During the summer of 1904, Mr. Lewis began to gradually asquire land and water rights to a total of 139 acres of the area in Ogden Canyon known as "Rock Ridge . " the Ogden River, On a hillside rising from he built "The Cobbles" which the Scoville Press pamphlet describes as "a feudal manor . .. , an achievement in Frozen music. The harmonizing shades of the cobblestones, the peerless turf, 3 ~he Astriking elevation, the gem-like setting ... have combined to make the home a jewel such as those Ogden's noted jeweler and owner of the home handles every day at his place of business." An actt~e businessman and civic leader, Mr. Lewis, launched many improvements while serving as president of the Ogden Park Commission and founder of the Ogden City Improvement League: parking the grounds of Ogden Union PaciFic Station; replatting and parking Lester Park and erecting the covered bower and giFting the city with a decorative water fountain [See Photo A)j planning and parking Union Square at the corner of Grant and Twenty-FiFth Street [This street has been nominated for the National Register); and designing with William T. Stillwell an ornate quatrefoil fountain in Union Square across from the Elks' Lodge [See Photo 8); securing from Fred ~. Kiesel the site for Ogden High School and helping to Float the necessary bond issue. Future plans, according to the Scoville Press pamphlst, include the purchase of ten acres of land at the entrance of Ogden Canyon, together with the erection of a memorial arch dedicated to the pioneers. [Eventually a country club and golf course were built on this site, but recent developers have turned the once r-ark-like area into a congested apartment com~lex. The once natural mountain river terrain where early farmers cut winter Ice from the ponds for the store houses to be delivered by wagon on hot summer days to the kids! and housewives, and where later g enerations skated or skinny- dipped or vowed their love is no more. Mr. Lewis also purposed "a waterFall, spraying brilliantly, from the city water pipes in full view of this park, whereas now Photo B The Union Square fountain we think the beaut\' :l nd a city dept'nJs on skp;n:lpers a,;d cx- \\' HY I~ TH E WORI.O ;Iory (If :cssivc population is a thing we can't undcr- :rand.

(The ' "obscure" waterFall still exists, but numerous leeks and mud slides and needed repairs Forecast its demise.) Additional plans were For a rugged park near Taylor's Canyon, and "a Wasatch Boulevard to skirt the mountain side From Birch Creek to Ogden Canyon." (To provide a belt route around the entire rim of the Wasatch Mountains has always been a plan of the founding fathers.) The Union Park fountain worked out by Mr. Lewis and Mr. Stillwell was destroyed along with the city hall when the City and County Building (1930), designed by Leslie S . Hodgson, who also designed the Forest Service Building and Ogden High School, was . erected. The Lester Park Fountain still exists but has been simplified. Mention should also be made here of the Forty-seven artesian wells in Ogden Canyon which still furnish the city with more than fifteen million gallons per day of "the best water in the war 1 d '.' " It is these pipes to which Mr. refers in his waterFall. The wells were cap~ed Lewis in 1936 when Pine View Dam was built. The above excerpts demonstrate but a few of John S . Lewis' civic accomplishments. 5 2. Describe the building in terms of its architectural significance. Include a characterization of the style, a description of any unique features it might possess as well as the contribution it makes to the environment. i A single-lane roadway leads From the main road through the gate, across the river bridge and up the hill around to the main entrance on the up-hill side,level with the First Floor. This main Floor [piano no~le] sits on a raised podium or temple-like stylobate of reinForced concrete Faced with cobblestones which Mr. Lewis collected himselF From a twenty mile radius and which the mason reportedly took two years to build. The ground Floor contains Furnace room, bedroom, bath, walk-in cold room, laundry room, and a general large room and storage which was later converted to a dressing room and sitting room.

P, Hardy House in Racine, Wr$consin. The house is--in the best Wrightian fashion--of the hill not on the hill. But, if on second consideration, the oriental elements are seriously examined: the orange tile raked roof, black mahogany interior cabinets and fretwork, the japanned the quiet flower colors of the rugs and drapes, thG silk brocaded panels, paddy t8rraces, the entrance gate, the rice- the house is not unlike the feudal rock palaces and temples of the Japanese over-lords sitting high upon their fortified walls and moats. The oriental motif is established with the intricate wooden grill work under the interior windows, brocaded wall panels, with the plum with the navy-blue velvet door and hall portieres, with the black mahogany dining room buffet, and museum quality especially with the signedAPlum-and-navy Oriental rugs which were custom made to Mrs. Lewis' s~ecifications in China. Except for the dust of disuse and a few woodwork scratches the main rooms are as Mrs. Lewis left them. The walls are stencilled canvas over plaster; the main 1 Floors are quarter-oak; the basement is inlaid cork.

Describe what alterations have been made to the original structure. " For example, ~ave ~here been any additions? Uhere? Hhen? In what ,.jays has use of the 1 nterl or space been altered? Has the buildi I1g been stuccoed or othen'li se sheathed? The extant blueprints reveal that such a monumental reside~ce was not built quickly, but was a continuous series of reFinements as the needs of the owners changed: All the drawings come from the ofFice of Eber F. AIA, 612 Eccles 81dg., Ogden, Utah. The original plans are dated March 31, 1916; revised plans, contract instructions floor heating plan, September 28, £ort~Be July 30, February 13, 1918: sub- plaster, March 5, 1921: Piers, 1918; ground interior details of fretwork, 1921; ground floor French doors to replace sash, vanity and dressing room and cold room revisions, July 20, 1924. The original plans show a walk-in fruit room where the 1924 plans and the existing construction has a vanity and dressing room. A large sitting room and connecting dressing room on the ground floor were apparently refurbished for a woman but never used. The expertly enameled cupboards contain shallow drawers for lingerie and tall shelves with wooden hat formS never used: 8 the vanity has crystal flower lamps not wired: and the wash basin is plumbed but not connected--a curious story of what might have been. After Mr. Lewis' death in 1938, a memorial plaque and some special landscaping was done on the north side of the house. Once the spacious grounds were terraced and irrigated after the fashion of a Chinese rice paddy with many fruit and flowering trees. A landscape plan shows twenty-one varieties of trees. The original kitchen and pantry area have been changed to include the back porch entrance as an eating area. 4. Describe the physical condition of the site at the present time • .
