This former courthouse was built in 1905 in the heart of downtown Brighton. It was designed by architect John J. Huddart, who was responsible for the designs of a number of courthouses throughout the state. During a 1939 PWA renovation, the elaborate roof-line and cupola were removed. It has served as the Brighton City Hall since 1975, when the county's next courthouse was erected a few block to the south.
It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.

Erected in 1880-83, this Romanesque Revival structure was designed by celebrated architect Henry Hobson Richardson. It housed the Albany County Courthouse until the county's 1912 Classical Revival courthouse was completed in 1916.
The Albany City Hall was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. It is also a contributing property to the Lafayette Park Historic District, which was listed in 1978.
Albany is a lovely small city located in the Hudson Valley of eastern New York. The municipality is home to just under 100,000 residents, and forms the center of a metropolitan area with a 2020 population of over 1 million. The city is one of the oldest in the region with Dutch colonial roots dating to the 1610s.
Albany became the capital of New York in 1797. In addition to being a political center for the fourth most populous U.S. state, the city is a regional hub for economic, educational, and cultural institutions.
