Construction Update: Domino Sugar Refinery

Construction is wrapping up at the adaptive reuse of the Domino Sugar Refinery, the 1876 structure by Henry Havemeyer that was part of the original three buildings for the filtering, panning, and finishing of sugar. Designed by PAU, the refinery will be converted into a 460,000 square foot office building as part of developer Two Trees’ Domino Sugar mixed use development. A new structure has been constructed inside of the original Refinery envelope, with a 10 to 12 foot gap in between the existing masonry walls and the curtain wall. Interiors for the project were led by Dencityworks and Bonetti/Kozerski.
