In 1871, Bjerregaardsgate was named after the poet Henrik Anker Bjerregaard (1792-1842).
In the western half of the street, three and four-storey tenements were erected in the 1870s, including Bjerregaardsgate 17.
In 1910, a total of 73 residents lived in Bjerregaardsgate 17, spread across 4 floors and 22 apartments. The rent was between NOK 21 and 35 per month. In an average city apartment at that time, between five and six people shared two or three rooms, i.e. just over two people per room. The Norwegian author Johan Falkberget lived for a period in Bjerregaardsgate 17, where he wrote several of his stories.
