Frank T. and Polly Lewis House

The Frank T. and Polly Lewis House is a historic house at 509 N. Main Street in Lodi, Wisconsin, United States.[2] The house was built in 1901-02 for house painter Frank T. Lewis and his wife, local milliner Polly Sparks Lewis. Prominent local architect Carl C. Menes designed the one-and-a-half story Queen Anne house. The house's design includes a polygonal tower with a steep pointed roof, a wraparound front porch supported by Tuscan columns, flared eaves with frieze boards, and a complex roof with several dormers. The Lewises lived in the house until Polly's death in 1907; Raymond J. Hillier lived in the house from 1918 until 1980.[3]
