与布鲁克林海军船坞和工业城一样，多米诺炼糖厂也将很快恢复生机，成为新的工作海滨的神经中枢。这座由亨利-哈夫迈耶（Henry Havemeyer）建造的工业城市地标，长期以来一直主导着布鲁克林的天际线和经济。

Like the Brooklyn Navy Yard and Industry City, the Domino Sugar Refinery will soon return to life as the nerve center of a new working waterfront. An industrial urban landmark constructed by Henry Havemeyer, the building long dominated both Brooklyn’s skyline and economy.

建造这座建筑的目的是为了在三座相连的建筑中整合三种功能--过滤、淘洗和精加工蔗糖--这些功能需要使用巨大的设备，而这些设备被安置在多层的空洞空间中，被砖石结构中重复的冲孔拱窗故意遮挡。尽管这些窗户在四个立面上错位排列，但它们共同赋予了整个建筑一种独特的、不朽的外观，西立面用放射状砖砌成的肌肉发达的烟囱更是将其推向了顶峰。

The structure was built to consolidate three functions inside three conjoined buildings—the filtering, panning, and finishing of sugar—that required the use of enormous equipment housed in cavernous, multistory spaces purposefully obscured by the repetitive punched arch windows in the masonry. Although these windows were misaligned across the four facades, together they give the entire structure a singular, monumental appearance, crowned by the muscular smokestack on the west elevation built out of radial brick.

2017 年，PAU 开始了对炼油厂大楼的改造再利用设计，根据创始人 Vishaan Chakrabarti 的总体规划，该大楼将成为新的多功能社区的皇冠上的明珠，其中包括创意办公空间、市场价和经济适用房、社区零售和社区设施的激活组合。

PAU 的任务是打造开放式建筑，将现有街区与四分之一英里长的滨水区无缝连接起来。最终，425,000 平方英尺的先进工作空间被安置在一个美丽、独特的城市工艺品中，这是后工业时代威廉斯堡的独特之处，为其居民和更大的社区提供了独特的体验。

In 2017 PAU started the design for adaptive reuse of the Refinery building, intended to be the crown jewel of the new mixed-use neighborhood, according to the master plan conceived by founder Vishaan Chakrabarti, complete with an activated mix of creative office space, market-rate and affordable housing, neighborhood retail, and community facilities. PAU was tasked with creating open architecture that seamlessly connects the existing neighborhood to the recaptured waterfront a quarter-mile long. The result is a state-of-the-art, 425,000-square-foot workspace housed within a beautiful, idiosyncratic urban artifact that is unique to post-industrial Williamsburg, offering a singular experience for its inhabitants and the larger community alike.

宝华建筑师事务所采用了一种不同的方法，即在现有围护结构中嵌套一座全新的建筑，在新旧建筑之间留出 10 至 12 英尺的空隙，而不是在组合砌体外壳上处理错位的地板和窗台。通过向后拉开原有墙体，可以实现理想的标准化层高，从而创造出一流的办公空间，满足新租户的需求。

Rather than navigating the misaligned floors and window sills across the combined masonry shell, PAU adopted a different approach: nesting a brand-new building into the existing envelope, with a 10- to 12-foot gap between the new and the old. By pulling back from the original walls, ideal and standardized floor heights can be achieved, creating best-in-class office space that is designed to meet the needs of new tenants.

一排排历史悠久的窗户不受内部隔墙的干扰，将曼哈顿的广阔景色尽收眼底，同时也让人们能够毫无阻碍地欣赏到现存的建筑结构。外围的采光和通风提供了一种独特的体验，并增强了自然光对核心区的渗透。新的玻璃桶形拱顶将耸立在历史建筑之上，与原炼油厂的美式圆拱风格和奇特的肌肉造型相呼应。

The array of historic windows, uninterrupted by interior partitions, reveal expansive views of Manhattan while allowing the extant structure to be appreciated in an unobstructed form. The light and airy perimeter provides a unique experience and enhances natural light penetration into the core. Rising above and in celebration of the historic structure will be a new glass barrel vault, echoing the American Round Arch Style and singular muscular form in which the original Refinery was rendered.

在底层，窗户将被改造成门，形成一个多孔的围墙，使行人可以从肯特大道穿过炼油厂，进入通往多米诺公园的公共门厅。

On the ground floor, the windows will be transformed into doors to create a porous enfilade, allowing pedestrians to pass through the Refinery from Kent Avenue into a public foyer to Domino Park.
