You can see the project here as you listen along.
Once a powerful symbol of New York’s industrial past, the Domino Refinery has been reimagined for the 21st century. Designed by PAU Studio, the project integrates history with modernity, transforming the historic structure into a vibrant hub for work and community life. A contemporary glass-and-steel structure has been carefully nested within the original brick façade—a design concept likened to placing "a bottle in a ship."
