    Clad in fluorescent construction trappings, the Domino Sugar Factory at 325 Kent Ave. continues to hold court on the Williamsburg waterfront. As photos from <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tectonicphoto/">Tectonic</a> reveal, the 16-story building is beginning to settle into its terraced final form, complete with a trestled suite of apartments that appear to be suspended mid-air. The building is just a piece of the puzzle that is the <a href="http://www.shoparc.com/projects/domino-sugar-refinery/">Domino Sugar Refinery "master plan,"</a> one that "envisions a new skyline for Brooklyn," according to <a href="http://www.shoparc.com/projects/domino-sugar-refinery/">SHoP Architects</a>, which was hired by <a href="http://twotreesny.com/">Two Trees Management</a> to transform the site into a mix of offices, market-rate and affordable housing, community facilities, and retail space.
