The site was originally part of a much larger property which continued all the way to Kongensgade (now Wildersgade) on the other side of the block.

In 1695, it was described as a five-bays-wide, half-timbered building with a three-bay gabled wall dormer.

The ship's powder magazine exploded on 31 May 1706, killing around 850 slaves and crewmembers.

Lauritz Werner Clasen resided in the building with his third wife Sara Thomine Bøttger, five children from his two first marriages (aged 10 to 21), two sailmaker's apprentices and two maids.

[6] Marie Svendsholm, a barkeeper, resided on the ground floor with one maid.

[7] Rasmus Larsen, a night watch at Krøyers Plads, resided in the basement with his wife Marie Lassen.

158 was initially sold to railway conductor Christian Wilhelm Christensen.

Lauritz Struch Bang resided on the first floor with his sister Marie Sophie Frederikke Bangand one maid.

Margrethe Falk, widow of a ship cook, now employed with needlework, resided on the ground floor of the rear wing with her two children (aged one and three) and her brother Johannes Fal (dyer).

On 23 December 1890, he was licensed as a High Court Attorney and started his own law firm.

Together with Anthon Melbye, he also published a book on Tivoli (Ernst Bojesens Forlag, 1884).

[12] On 27 June 1904, Güthmann sold the property to master in forest science G. Hauberg.

He was the owner of William Andersen & Co., a wholesale company established back in 1845 by his grandfather Andreas Will.

[13] On 17 July 1911, Andersen sold the buildings to the tea wholesale company David Metz.

In 1927–1933, the remaining part of the cleared site was used for the construction of a Modernist housing estate designed by Bent Helweg-Møller.

One of two six-bay consecutive side wings were in this connection demolished and the other one was shortened to two bays.

[1] The building is owned by Steen Olaf Toftebjerg, an engineer and CEO of Næstved-based Hansen & Andersen.
