In 1857 the street was widened, in the years 1880-1881 extended to Grzybowski Square. In September 1939, buildings of Próżna were partially burned down. In November 1940, the western part of the street on the section between the Zielna St. and the Grzybowski Sq. became a part of the Warsaw Ghetto. It was off a few months later, in March 1941, after moving the Ghetto by the Germans in the area of the square Grzybowski and line of the Bagno St. and Wielka St.; Próżna St. is the only street that both sides buildings (houses at Nos. 7, 9, 12 and 14) survived the destruction of the ghetto. During the Warsaw Uprising it was the scene of fighting, including between houses No. 9 and 14 there were erected barricades closing the outlet of Próżna St. to Grzybowski Sq. In 1944 the buildings of central and eastern part of the street were destroyed.
In 1987 the buildings were entered in the register of monuments. Since 2004, the street is place of running the Festival of Jewish Culture in Warsaw - "Singer's Warsaw". In 2011 began the renovation of houses at number 7 and 9, which will be converted into office buildings.
