It was not until more than one hundred years later that Andreas Bjørn reclaimed the area on the other side of Eilder's Canal, paving the way for a northeastern extension of Strandgade.
He later also acquired Vestervig Abbey in North Jutland and Hjorslev on Stevns as payment of loans to the Crown.
Their company Borre & Fenger owned a property facing Christianshavn Cabal (Overgaden Neden Vandet 51, later part of Wildersgade Barracks.
Borre owned the adjacent warehouse (Overgaden Neden Vandet 49, later part of Wildersgade Barracks).
In 1760, Borre & Fenger received a royal privilege to establish a sugar refinery but the plans were most likely not realized.
(Det grønlandske Handels- og Fiskefangstkompagni), Twice a year, Borre's property played host to the company's auctions.
Vast quantities of whale oil (hvid hvaltran, brun tran, trekronertran etc), whale bards, dried fish (plat-fisk, klipfisk), lanolin, bird fethers, hides eiderdowns, whool, saltpeter, cured lamb meat and other products were sold from the premises.
It was subsequently decided to sell the Irgens House and relocate the company headquarters to a modest building at Grønlandske Handels Plads.
The Frisch House was constructed after the previous building on the site had been destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795.
The Irgens House was subsequently sold to General Commissariats and adapted for use as the Artillery Brigade barracks.
The complex is bounded by Strandgade to the west, Bådsmandsstræde to the north and Wildersgade to the east, forming the northern part of a block which is completed by Sankt Annæ Gade to the south.
