At that point, the path crossed the Bydgoszcz Canal and extended westward, as Berliner Chaussee[3] (today's Grunwaldzka street).

In 1910, the new owner, a carpenter, had the house rebuilt: his name was August Kneiding, living at Korn Markt 9,[9] today's Długa street 65.
The edifice has been housing the firm "Modus", one of the largest companies in the country, specialized in sewing official and military clothing.
The company was founded in 1945 as a state-owned Zakłady Przemysłu Urządzowego "Modus" (English: Equipment Industry Plants) in Bydgoszcz.
Eventually, in 2005, "Modus" focused on the production and sale of uniforms for the police, the military, fire departments and other services.

1903 Industrial architecture The first dye house owned by Bydgoszcz industrialist William Kopp was established in 1878 in a nearby street.
After 10 years using a temporary place downtown, Wilhelm Kopp had to build a new plant in 1903, on Świętej Trójcy Street, then Berliner straße 33.
In practice, only three sons (Rudolf Wilhelm Albert, Julius Otto Friedrich and Felix Ernst Max) ran the business.
It was ideally situated just across the street, a few meters from his plant producing cast iron and steam powered machines.
The three-storey building, based on a triangular footprint, displays two different brick and plaster facades, with a bay window in the corner and a Mansard roof.

The elevation on the courtyard displays an arched passage leading to the main door, protected by a wrought iron gate.

Initially, it was reserved for the use of Polish Catholics, while the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, inaugurated in June 1913 was opened to the German community.
[14] It was bought in the early 1910s by Carl ßeilke, a factory manager, who lived nearby, at Hippelstraße 13 (today's Kordieckiego street 9).
1910[32] Late Art Nouveau, Modern architecture The house, initially at Berliner straße 22b, was owned by Mr Busse, a member of the city council.
The tenement features a mix of styles: late Art Nouveau (adorned Portal, wrought iron gate, eyelid dormer) and early Modern architecture (straight lines, symmetry in the opening's locations).
On both facades, a multitude of adorned motifs recall the late Secession style, echoing the Grawunder brothers' tenements erected at Dworcowa Street 45/47 during the same period.
