As the Lewis Group of Companies begins its 60th year, many long-tenured employees under the direction of a second and third-generation management team continue the tradition of quality, integrity, and stability that was of paramount importance to Ralph and Goldy Lewis when they founded their home building firm in Claremont in 1955.
A Leading Developer In The Western States
Since 1955, the Lewis organization has developed new communities in California, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah, totaling in excess of 35,000 acres and building more than 59,000 homes.
In 1999, the Lewis family sold a portion of its business, Lewis Homes, to Kaufman and Broad (KB Home), creating the largest homebuilder in the United States at that time.
