Adams House is a student residence-turned-office building located at the southwestern corner of the intersection of Avenue I and 20th Street, facing north.
Residence Life classifies the two-story small house as a part of the "The Valley"; it was formerly classified as part of "Four Central."
The building has had many occupants as evidenced on older maps: it was at one time the former home of the Texas Eta chapter of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and then for many years the offices of the Housing and Food Services department. It wasn't until the 1990s that the building again became student housing and regularly appeared in print with Adams' name (probably once Adams Hall was demolished).
Residence Life announced in October 2005 that the house would be converted to offices beginning in January 2006 so that the Frels and Wilson buildings could be vacated in preparation for their demolition. The Office of Research and Special Programs moved to the building in Fall 2006.
