A dramatic shift is underway on the Williamsburg waterfront: The ruins of the former Domino Sugar Refinery, a neighborhood landmark since the 19th century, are in the process of being transformed into an 11-acre megaproject. Four new buildings are on the way, as is a renovation of the massive factory building that once produced more sugar than any other place in the world. But before those pieces come to fruition, the megaproject’s first major public-facing component will debut: Domino Park, a six-acre green space that hugs the edge of the development, opens on June 10. Designed by James Corner Field Operations, known for its work on the High Line and Cornell Tech, the waterfront park is—like many urban open spaces these days—purpose-built for a variety of uses, all while nodding to the site’s industrial past. Though this is an entirely new park, there are elements that bring in the site’s past—notably along Artifact Walk, an elevated catwalk that stretches over five blocks. Several cranes that previously occupied the site remain, and have been painted in the park’s signature turquoise; other repurposed remnants include columns from the refinery building, and enormous tanks that were used during the refining process. (Another notable feature of the Artifact Walk: its impressive views of the Manhattan skyline.)
