In the 1880s this lot was vacant. Sometime between 1888 and 1893, a two-story house was erected here. In 1898, it was occupied by Joseph A., Louis L., Mary, Archibald, Alphonse, Alexander L., and Albert A. Munch. The Munch family lived here until at least 1905. Around 1906, the house was demolished, and the existing building was built. In 1907, it was occupied by a saloon owned by Eric Macki. In 1916 the saloon was owned by Samuel Michaels.
By 1928 the building was used as a print shop and has been since. In 1930 the shop belonged to the Finnish Republican Printing Company, which published a Finnish semi-weekly called Valvoja (The Guardian); Edward Keish was president of the company, and Jacob Utti was secretary and treasurer. Today, it is a job shop called Copper Island Printing.
