The six-story store and loft building at 81-89 Bleecker Street, also numbered 212-216 Mercer Street, was designed by Richard Berger and built in 1902-03 for P.L. Ronalds of Connecticut. It replaced several brick row houses, as taller commercial buildings took over from the area's earlier homes. The Ronalds family owned it until at least 1918.
