A massive wooden construction barrier has gone up along the Kent Avenue side of the Domino Sugar factory; workers were seen nearing completion of the Grand Street side of the wall today, all but completely shielding the doomed complex (minus the landmarked refinery, of course) from view forevermore.
According to an update from Two Trees Management, asbestos abatement at the site has now been completed; demolition of Building 28, at the corner of Kent Ave and Grand Street, was set to begin toward the end of this week.
Before you get too misty-eyed, rest assured that Borbay’s painting of the factory is still right here at the B+B Newsroom, and Borbs has now posted this sweet time-lapse video to go with it.
