Lewis Building at 246 Broadway in Eagle. Built in 1912 by the Dice brothers, the First National Bank of Eagle occupied the single story part of the building. The first floor of the two-story section was the Hugus Mercantile Store until the Lewis family took it over as a very successful general store. After that business closed in 1975, the bank took over the first floor. On the second floor was the Masonic Hall and movie theatre.
