Exciting news for Williamsburg! Domino Square has officially opened on the Williamsburg waterfront. This stunning one-acre public plaza is the latest addition to the iconic Domino Sugar Factory site, bringing even more park space to the area. Designed by landscape architecture firm Field Operations, the space is focused on community, offering year-round events such as salsa nights, farmers markets, and Williamsburg’s first-ever ice skating rink, which is set to open this November. Part of the larger Domino Park, which opened in 2018, this final section spans 33,000 square feet—about the size of a city block. It sits between One Domino Square and The Refinery at Domino, a historic 19th-century factory transformed into a net-zero carbon office space. The plaza features tiered seating, lush plantings, and a new overlook with views of the park and the Williamsburg Bridge. Additionally, the retail arcade, designed by Studio Casdena, showcases concrete piers that frame the space and create entry points into the park. Domino Square marks the completion of the Domino master plan, which has brought new homes, office spaces, and parks to this formerly industrial waterfront.
