The Havemeyer family's American Sugar Refining Company rebuilt its Williamsburg refinery in 1882–1884 after fire destroyed the original works, and for a century the Domino plant was the largest sugar refinery in the world and the defining industrial fact of the Southside waterfront. Refining stopped in 2004. What followed was two decades of land-use argument: CPC Resources and Isaac Katan bought the eleven-acre site for $55.8 million that July and won approval in 2010 for a nine-building scheme with 2,200 apartments; Two Trees Management bought the entitled site in October 2012 for a reported $185 million and reopened the plan, winning approval in March 2014 for a revised master plan by SHoP Architects carrying roughly 2,800 apartments, 700 of them below market, 600,000 square feet of office space, and six acres of public waterfront park.
One Domino Square is the fourth building of that plan and the first one on the site offered for sale. The three that preceded it — 325 Kent Avenue (2017), and One South First with Ten Grand Street (2019) — are rental buildings, and The Refinery, the landmarked 1880s Pan, Filter and Finishing House reopened in September 2023 as office space, is not housing at all. A buyer looking at the Domino blocks is therefore looking at one condominium inside a campus otherwise built to be held: 160 residences in the taller of two towers at 346 Kent Avenue, with roughly 400 rental apartments, about 120 of them income-restricted, in the 472-foot companion tower beside it.
Selldorf Architects designed both towers: a disciplined structural grid clad in iridescent porcelain panels that shift color with the light and the angle, set on a granite base that grounds both towers and frames Domino Square, the public plaza at the foot of the building that carries a seasonal ice rink. The taller tower reaches 574 feet, well above anything else on this stretch of shoreline, and the exposure that height produces — Manhattan directly across the river, the Williamsburg Bridge to the south, the harbor beyond — is the building's core asset.
The amenity program is the other. Roughly 45,000 square feet under the sponsor's name The Club: indoor and outdoor pools, a hydrotherapy spa with cold plunge, steam and sauna, fitness center and yoga studio, golf simulator, media room, children's playroom, private dining room with chef's kitchen, landscaped roof garden, pet spa, and 24-hour concierge. Two Trees also built and opened Domino Park in June 2018 — six acres designed by James Corner Field Operations, with the refinery's salvaged syrup tanks and gantry cranes left standing in it — six years before the condominium delivered. Buyers arriving in 2024 walked into a finished neighborhood rather than a construction site, which is unusual for a first-in-project condominium and shows in absorption.
The tax position is the counterweight and the single most important thing to model. No abatement is publicly documented for the condominium residences here, and the successor to the original 421-a program does not reach a 160-unit condominium tower. Against the abated Greenpoint and Northside stock of the 2015–2019 vintage, One Domino Square's monthly carrying cost is a different arithmetic entirely, and the comparison a buyer makes on asking price alone will mislead them.
Architecture and unit composition
The condominium occupies the taller tower, entered at 8 South 4th Street. Its 160 residences run from one-bedroom through four-bedroom layouts and penthouses, with sponsor pricing at the 2024 launch beginning around $1.85 million for the one- to three-bedroom inventory and penthouses opening around $5.95 million. Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs through the inventory; the porcelain-panel grid reads from inside as a deep window reveal rather than a flush curtain wall, and corner residences on the upper floors carry the two-directional Manhattan-and-harbor exposure that drives the building's pricing spread.
The story-count question comes up in diligence often enough to address directly: city records for the lot show 52 floors, construction reporting through 2023 put the tower at 55 to 57, and the reliable figure is the height — 574 feet. Any specific unit's floor number should be taken from its deed and the declaration rather than from press accounts.
The same discipline applies to unit counts. PLUTO records 462 residential units at 346 Kent Avenue; the sponsor's materials and consistent public reporting describe 160 condominium residences plus roughly 400 rental apartments across the two towers. The condominium a purchaser is buying into is the 160-unit one, and the declaration and offering plan are the controlling documents on common interest, common charges, and the boundary between the condominium and the rental component.
Building operations
One Domino Square runs as a full-service, amenity-led building: 24-hour concierge, a package room with cold storage for grocery and meal delivery, bicycle storage, a pet spa, and staffed amenity floors across The Club's roughly 45,000 square feet. Two Trees operates as a long-term owner across the whole campus rather than a merchant builder that sells and exits, which is relevant to service standards on a site where the sponsor still owns the rental towers, the retail, The Refinery office building, and the park's maintenance obligations.
Two operational points belong in every diligence file. First, the condominium shares a base and a campus with a large rental building, and the allocation of shared costs, the boundary between condominium and rental amenities, and the governance structure between components are set by the condominium documents — read them rather than assuming a single-tower arrangement. Second, Domino Park and Domino Square belong to the public. They are extraordinary neighbors and they are also programmed and busy; a buyer on a low floor facing the plaza should understand what the ice rink season sounds like.

What to know if you’re buying
Underwrite the taxes first. No abatement is publicly documented on the condominium residences. If you are cross-shopping the 421-a-abated waterfront inventory in Greenpoint or on the Northside, the monthly difference will be substantial and it will not appear in the asking price. Run True Monthly Carrying Cost on the actual bill.
The height and the exposure are what you are paying for. At 574 feet the tower sits well above everything around it, and the premium between an upper-floor Manhattan-facing corner and a mid-floor interior line is the widest spread in Williamsburg. Choose the line deliberately.
Read the campus structure. The condominium shares a base with a large rental tower containing income-restricted apartments, and Two Trees remains the owner of the rentals, the retail, the office building, and the park obligations. The condominium documents govern shared costs and amenity boundaries.
Domino Park is a public park. It is a superb neighbor and it is also programmed and busy. Visit the plaza on a weekend before you commit to a low floor.
The transit picture is ferry and bridge. The Domino blocks sit south of Bedford Avenue's L stop and north of Marcy Avenue on the J, M, and Z; the South Williamsburg ferry landing and the Williamsburg Bridge are the closer connections, and buyers who need a train should walk both routes before contract.
What to know if you’re selling
Market the credential stack plainly. Selldorf architecture, the Two Trees campus, a 45,000-square-foot amenity program, Domino Park at the door, and a Brooklyn per-square-foot record set in this building — the story is institutional, and it should be told that way rather than romantically.
Price to the line against sponsor history. With 160 residences and a very wide exposure spread, building averages mislead in both directions. Recent closings on your line and the unit's original sponsor price are the correct anchors.
Be direct about taxes. Sophisticated buyers will discover the tax position in their own underwriting. Disclosing it early, with the bill in hand and the carrying cost worked out, produces cleaner negotiations than letting it surface at the attorney stage.
Expect a cross-shopping buyer. The pool here reaches into Manhattan new development and DUMBO's amenity tier as much as into Williamsburg. Presentation and materials should hold up against that comparison set.
