Legacy A number of landmarks and events are named after Lewis in University City and Atascadero. In University City, a marker in front of City Hall describes Lewis as a "banker, planner, developer, builder, publisher, inventor, artist, dreamer, [and] visionary" who "left us with a remarkable legacy." The section of California State Route 41 between Atascadero and Morro Bay is now officially designated the "E.G. Lewis Highway".
