Huvudbyggnaden mot vattnet uppfördes 1882-89 för P. A. Norstedt & Söner. Arkitekt var Magnus Isaeus. I anläggningen ingår ett bostadshus från 1772, ritat av Erik Palmstedt, samt en tryckeribyggnad från 1857 av J. F. Åbom. Firman grundades 1823 av köpman-nen och rådmannen P. A. Norstedt, främst som tryckeri. Snart utvecklades också förlagsverk-samheten och firman flyttade till Riddarholmen 1833. Tegelfasadens blå neonskylt fick Stockholms Stads skyltpris 2006.
