As far as I know, "Common Windows" is a product of Franz Inc., and is
available as part of its Allegro Common Lisp distribution.
You may want to look at CLM, a freeware portable Common Lisp binding for
Motif based on the widely available CLX, if portability is an issue.

I think you are right.
History:
From the KEE for the Symbolics manual set:
IntelliCorp Common Windows Manual, 1986:
"Acknowledgements
The principal desing of the Common Windows system was done by
Ellen Drascher and Kenny Tidwell at IntelliCorp...
1. Preface
1.1 What are Common Windows?
Common Windows is a comprehensive and flexible window system
built as an extension to Common Lisp. Common Windows was
derived primarily from the Interlisp-D and ZetaLisp
windowing systems...."

I think it is not widely used nowadays, but was once ported
to several machines and thought to develop into a standard.
