The site was part of a large piece of land acquired by Bloms Enke & Co. The property now known as Kronprinsessegade 36 was listed in the new cadastre of 1806 as No. 399 in St. Ann's West Quarter. A building had still not been constructed on the site when the firm was dissolved. The site was subsequently acquired by Thomas Blom. The present building on the site was built by him in 1820–1825. Blom had until then lived with his family at Kronprinsessegade 40. They moved to one of the apartments in the new building as soon as it was completed in 1825. Blom's son Julius Blom would later become a prominent master carpenter.
