524 Adams Street SE
Lee Harless has captured the spirit of Adams Street in his 1977 sketch of three harmonious but dissimilar homes, the Yeatman-Beck home (ca. 1825), the Van Dyke home (ca. 1895) and the Certain-Lacy home (ca. 1923).
About the Yeatman-Beck home:I remember a dance Willis Harris gave when we were teenagers. A lamp got knocked off by someone leaning against an old table. Willis nonchalantly said, "Good. I never liked that lamp." A good host and the best dancer in Huntsville.
