New renderings have been revealed for Domino Park, at the Domino Sugar Factory site.

Almost a year and a half to date since the first renderings were revealed for Domino Park, the 4,45Ha park and waterfront esplanade that will anchor the 280,000 sqm Williamsburg mega-development at the Domino Sugar Factory site, a new batch of views has been released by developer Two Trees, and they showcase everything from an urban “beach” to a better look at how preserved artifacts from the historic factory will be incorporated throughout. Designed by James Corner Field Operations (of the High Line fame), the park is scheduled to open this summer, ahead of most of the buildings.
 
Field Operations is currently collaborating with SHoP Architects for Two Trees Management on the transformation of the former Domino Sugar Factory site into an ambitious mixed use development project.  Inspired by community input and the site’s rich history, a quarter-of-a-mile public waterfront park will feature a 5-block long “Artifact Walk” that incorporates the original gantry cranes, syrup tanks, screw conveyors and other historical relics.  The new waterfront park will offer a wide range of active and passive uses and will reconnect the neighborhood to the riverfront.
 
In total, the entire 10-year Domino Sugar Factory project will yield 2,300 apartments, 46,000 square meter of commercial space, and a new school. This past fall, residents began moving into SHoP Architects’ donut-shaped rental tower 325 Kent, and in November, the Landmarks Preservation Commission approved a project to redesign the iconic 19th century Domino Sugar Factory building into a modern office space.
