Residents of Williamsburg want to save the more than 120-year-old Domino Sugar Processing building. It faces demolition.
“While we can’t stop change we want to manage it a little bit,” Mikki Halpin of the concert organizer Act Local told New York 1. “This is a building that really represents the neighborhood to a lot of people.”
The city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission will hold a hearing on whether the building should be landmarked.
