This building was later heightened twice, first in the 1850s and then in 1887. The present building contains a ice cream parlour with homemade waffles in the basement and two residential apartments on each of the upper floors.

No. 25 and No. 79 seen on a detail from Christian Gedde's map of St. Ann's East Quarter, 1757.

The site was originally part of two separate properties. One of them was by 1689 as No. 27 in St. Ann's Quarter (Sankt Annæ Kvarter) owned by Marcus Rotsteen. The other one was by 1689 as No. 28 owned by tanner Villum Lydersen. Two adjoining sections of the two properties were by 1756, as No. 25 and No. 79, owned by skipper Jens Larsen.

The corner building was constructed as a warehouse for skipper Jens Larsen in 1744–46. [1] The facade on Nyhavn featured a four-bay, rounded wall dormer with the '1744' written above the windows. The facade on Toldbodgade featured a crow-stepped gable.

The property was later acquired by merchant (grosserer) and bank manager Rasmus Kirketerp (1747-1830). At the time of the 1801 census, he resided in the building with his wife Elisabeth (née Bechmann) and their five children (aged six to 18), an office clerk, a chachman,[ clarification needed ] a caretaker, a chamber maid (husjomfru) and three maids.

At the time of the 1834 census, Elisabeth Kirketerp resided on the ground floor with her 47-year old daughter Sidsel Magretha Kirketerp, a chamber maid (husjomfru), a male servant and two maids. [3] One of her sons, Niels Kirketerp (1785-1855), a merchant (grosserer), resided on the second floor with his wife Erlandsine Frideriche Kirketerp (née Wandel, 1796-1855; daughter of regiment surgeon Andreas Carl Wandel), their five children (aged two to 11), the bookkeeper Søren Hastrup, a male servant and two maids. [4]

The property was home to two households at the 1840 census.Niels and Erlandsine Kirketerpresided on the first floor with their five children (aged three to 16), husjomfru Elise Christ. Lund, a housekeeper, two male servants and two maids. [5] The 53-year-old Sidsel Magrete Kirketerp (needlework) resided on the ground floor with the 25-year-old clerkRasmus J. Wandel and two maids. [6]

The property was again home to two households at the 1850 census. Niels Kirketerp resided on the first floor with his wife Erlandine Frederca Kirketerp, four of their children (aged 15 to 26), bookkeeper Søren Hastrup and one maid. [7] [8] The businessman (grosserer) Carl Ferdinand Uthicke resided on the ground floor with his wife Marie Uthicke and one maid. [9]

The property was again home to four households at the 1860 census. Christen Jensen Bjørnstrup, a distiller, resided in the building with his wife Laura Bjørnstrup (née Thuren), their three children (aged seven to 14) and one maid. [10] He had previously (1845) operated a distillery in Adelgade (St. Ann's West Quarterm No. 379).

[13] Michael Christian Black, a merchant, was also a resident of the building (probably in the basement). [14]

The building was home to just 10 residents at the 1880 census. Joullisse Margrethe Sørensen, a maid, resided on the first floor. The lack of other residents on the upper floors could indicate that the building was used as a hostel (or missing census records). Peter Julius Frederiksen, a concierge, resided on the ground floor with his wife Anna Sophie Frederiksen and their four children (aged three to 10). Charles Emil Hvilsom, a grocer (urtekræmmer), resided in the basement with his employee Carl Johan Borelli. Gottlieb Axel Rasmussen, another retailer, was also resident in the basement. [15]
