 A monument in Lewis is getting a makeover. The DeVries Monument commemorates a colony that helped Delaware become a separate state instead of merging into Maryland. The monument on Pilot Town Road in Lewis is getting renovated, which will include more accessibility, added safety, seating, pathways, native plantings, and Native American and colonial life signage. Lewis Historical Society archivist Denise Clemens says this sign is about more than its namesake.
