The building that currently houses Hudson Valley Newspapers is one of only a few buildings set back from Warren Street. It was originally built as a jail in 1805, and the yard in front was known as Hangman's Square. Only one person was ever executed here. In 1835 it became a city hall and an assembly and dance hall for twenty years. In 1855 it became known as Davis Hall, a theatre. Since 1862, it has been a printing shop and newspaper building.
