In 1886-87 De Raismes, a Flushing resident, commissioned the firm Berger & Baylies to design this 25-foot-wide store and loft building near the Hudson Street end of the block. It was put up together with its near twin at No. 162, and the pair took the place of three frame buildings. The Landmarks Preservation Commission suggests De Raismes may have been related to the Deraismes family of fancy-goods merchants, who had a Berger & Baylies building on Reade Street.
