About The Preserve

The Lewis Group of Companies is a collection of separate, independent entities focused on the real estate industry. We take a community-first approach to development. From our earliest days, we have been devoted to leaving the world better than we found it by building meaningful relationships, fostering a culture of inclusion and empowerment, creating new opportunities, and delivering real long-term value for our clients, employees, partners, tenants, customers, residents, and the wider communities we serve. Lewis Retail Centers has been in business for over 60 years and is one of the largest shopping center developers in California and Nevada. It is also a member of the Lewis Group of Companies and has developed a portfolio of dynamic neighborhood, community, and lifestyle centers totaling over 9 million square feet. This prime space is home to many of the nation’s most prestigious retailers. Included are Best Buy, Costco, Home Depot, Jo-Ann’s Fabrics & Crafts, Kohl’s, Lowe’s, RC Willey, Ross, Sam’s Club, Target, Walmart, Ralphs, Safeway, Vons, ULTA, Cinemark and Stater Bros. 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. Strict adherence to this philosophy has resulted in the development of more than 57,000 homes, 8,968 apartments and 14 million square feet of retail, office, and industrial space. Since 1955, the Lewis organization has developed new communities in California, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah, totaling in excess of 25,000 acres and housing more than 100,000 families. 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.
