=========================================================

Puvodní charakter objektu c.p. 729/I U Zlatého stromu (visit link) v Dlouhé tríde, rozsáhlé stavby s arkádovým dvorem a pivovarským domem v zadní cásti, byl ponicen pozdejší prestavbou. Dum vznikl spojením dvou starších objektu na pocátku 17. století. Renesancní prestavba, v jejímž prubehu byly ve dvore hlavní budovy predstaveny arkády, byla dokoncena v roce 1608, k dalším úpravám došlo po roce 1648. V 17. století jej vlastnil Václav Krocín z Drahobejle, pražský meštan a od roku 1584 primátor Starého Mesta, a na konci 18. století Karel Ballabene, bankér, v jehož majetku byla i libenská usedlost nesoucí dodnes jméno Balabenka.
Dnešní fasáda domu pochází z prestavby z let 1927-1928, kdy byla cástecne zmenena i o druhé patro a podkroví. Dnes v dome krome tradicní hospody sídlí rada obchodu a firem.
