It seems likely that 西三条 was added because it is associated with Lu Xun.
But I don't think such a tiny locality deserves an entry in CEDICT.

"Lu Xun owned at least a share in what became Zhou Zuoren’s compound at Badaowan, and Xisantiao (now the Lu Xun
Museum in Beijing), which Lu Xun purchased himself. "

"The Lu Xun Museum on Gongmenkou Xisantiao (宫门口西三条) ..."

"At first glance, the secluded courtyard at 21 Xisantiao Hutong in Beijing is no different from other compounds in the capital.
Located outside Fucheng Gate near the Second Ring Road, the conspicuously enclosed courtyard is neglected by most
passers-by. Yet, if people slow their pace and step closer, they may discover a tablet hanging on the greyish wall that reads
"Former Residence of Lu Xun (1881-1936)." "
