WILLIAMSBURG – The building that once contained the renowned Domino Sugar Factory in Williamsburg, at one point the largest sugar manufacturing producer in the world, is being outfitted with trees and a vertical garden, announced Two Trees Management on Monday. The office will have a whopping 17 30-foot trees craned in and upon completion the new flora will be visible to residents in the vicinity of Domino Park. The lively and naturalesque aesthetics will be implanted by the Domino Park design team, who also created “pandemic circles,” which allowed for social distancing and safer park enjoyment during the pandemic. 

 On April 5th, Brooklyn-based place-maker Two Trees Management will perform an incredible task literally craning massive trees up and over the historic brick facade and surgically dropping them inside the narrow 12-foot space between the old brick and new glass building within.
