The iconic dome of Red Hook's Revere Sugar Refinery will probably disappear sometime in the next couple of weeks. To memorialize this grand and gritty vestige of the neighborhood's industrial past, we'd like to collect pictures of the inside and outside of the factory. Please add yours in the links. The ones above come to us via GC, who wrote in last night:
I and another photographer visited the revere sugar refinery on sunday, the day before real demolition began. We documented the interior of the iconic cone, and explored throughout the buildings in the complex. If you are interested in doing an article about out visit to the place, please contact me. You can see our photos here: http://flickr.com/photos/gowanus/sets/72157594430020309/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/mercurialn/sets/72157594425974407/
Our best shot of Revere can be found at Bluejake.
