Warren,

Stadt Huys means State House. It was also called Town Hall.
See a picture of the State House facing the East River withthe
two-way wooden bridges -- very interesting picture! It is in
Chapter XV which details about its historical and political
associations

York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1902], p. 176.

Regards,
Jean
