I believe this may be the Lee house at 414 W Adams as it appeared originally. It is of a one-story type typical of early semi-rural Adams Street and seems to have been built 1877-1879. Henry T. Lee subdivided his property in 1897, and in 1900 greatly enlarged his house on the lot he kept for himself; it survived until 1953. The northbound Adams off-ramp of the 110 runs right through its site. A history of the property is here:
