Two Trees: What should we do with Domino Sugar lot?
Two Trees is seeking community input on how to develop the Domino Sugar site it purchased in October, Brownstoner reports. On Friday, the firm put out a formal request for proposals on “a fun and creative use” for what is known as Site E, a lot located on Kent Avenue between South 3rd and South 4th streets in Williamsburg.
The idea is to do something interesting with the 55,000 square-foot lot for the year or more before construction begins. So far, proposals have included an ice skating rink and High Line-style park.
Two Trees, known primarily for its development of the DUMBO neighborhood, acquired the 11-acre Domino site from C.P.C. Resources, which had planned a $1.4 billion residential development there.
