History
2
Built in 1854 for A. J. Storms of the Storms Tub and Pail Factory, Couch Court was the 1875-1882 home of Edwin Stillwell, captain of the Nyack-Tarrytown Ferry. The Couch family purchased it in 1885, and Dr. Louis Couch used the tower for his homeopathic practice. His daughter Natalie, a law clerk for Judge Arthur S. Tompkins, became the county’s first woman attorney. From 1942-1951, Couch Court served as law offices and as Orangetown Town Hall.
