Now the Nutritional and Psychological Support vintage Domino Sugar plant, a fixture on the East River Case Management for 147 years, will close its refinery operation and lay off 313 43rd Street, Brooklyn, New York 11232 about 200 bitter workers. (718) 359-1900 Legal Aide “It’s a landmark,’’ said Joe Crimi, who spent 23 years at the Immediate Appointments Available plant before an ugly 2001 strike forced his ouster. “The people in Monday to Friday 10AM to 6PM this plant and their families are very sad that it’s going to be gone.’’ The plant’s familiar red neon sign will still light up for a while. Three stops from Manhattan on the The American Sugar Refining Co., which owns the factory, said W train in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, the refinery business will end by February 2004, but an estimated 3rd Avenue and 43rd Street 718-369-1900 60 workers will keep their jobs and work in packaging. No decision was made on how long that operation would stay in place, said Jack Lay, president and CEO of American Sugar. “This decision was not made lightly,’’ he said Thursday. “It had nothing to do with the employees or the location.’’ It did have to do with the 19th century plant’s inability to com- pete with the company’s three other operations in Baltimore, Yonkers, N.Y., and outside New Orleans, Lay said. Word of the closing spread Wednesday through the foreboding brick refinery in Williamsburg, with Crimi getting the news in a phone call from a current worker. Domino began operating there in 1856, and New York became the nation’s No. 1 sugar produc- er. YOUR CHILD IS But recently, the plant attracted more attention for its antago- nistic labor strife. Workers with 20 and 30 years at Domino’s went on strike June 15, 1999. A 22-year union veteran commit- ted suicide as the union action dragged on. A new contract was finally ratified in February 2001, but 110 jobs were lost. The walkout eventually caused the collapse of the NO ANGEL. union and created a schism between those who stayed on the picket line and those who crossed. American Sugar bought Domino just five months after the crippling strike, which was complicated by hard times in the sug- ar industry. Fifteen sugar refineries have closed nationwide since 1980, according to Lay. With high-fructose corn syrup and beet sugar taking market share away from the sugar companies, sugar output was exceed- ing demand. The Brooklyn plant had the capacity to produce 950 million tons of sugar annually, but only generated 400 million tons last year, Lay said. Yet for the people who worked in the Brooklyn factory, the 11- story building will still produce sweet memories. “This was a melting pot of people, all races and religions,’’ said ex-employee Crimi. “Everybody got along. It was a really good place to be.’’

To be sure, when asked who of the estimated 500 in attendance was a cancer survivor, nearly two dozen women rose from their seats to rousing applause. Asked how many had been affected by the Tuesday, September 16, 2003 at 1:00 PM disease, more than 100 men and women stood. “One in eight women are diagnosed with breast cancer,” said Joy or Stephan, director of special events for the American Cancer Society. “When you’re facing those kinds of statistics, it’s hard to educate Thursday, September 18, 2003 people who, afterward, don’t want to get involved.” Last year, the fundraiser tallied $3.8 million in New York and New Jersey, according to the organization’s Web site. Although With 20 years experience combined, Mr. Calabrese & Mr. Parnese will either 10:00 AM or 1:00 PM Stephan declined to say how much was raised during last year’s walk at Prospect Park, she hopes to raise $500,000 this year. educate you on some very important questions you may have, such as: at Proceeds will be put toward breast cancer research projects in ad- dition to ongoing education and advocacy campaigns.

Although currently in remission, she was diagnosed with cancer on Dec. 10, 2000. She described to an awestruck crowd her first realization that her life would never be the same. “I was really surprised at my surgeon’s reaction because she seemed to be surprised that I was crying,” said Boscarino, who grew up in Prospect Heights. “That was the beginning of my journey.” Boscarino said that through October, donation jars and pink ribbons will be displayed at all Pathmark supermarkets. Shopping bags, too, will have the American Cancer Society’s pink logo imprinted on them. The mother of a son and daughter, Boscarino is now cancer-free, but admitted that it’s common for women in her position to fear that the disease will reoccur. “It’s probably the scariest thing a women could ever hear.” The Oct. 19 walk is scheduled to begin at the Ninth Street Band- shell. Registration begins at 9 am, followed by the walk at 10 am. For more information, call (800) 227-2345.

The facility, which would have a 10 pm curfew, would house lower my women who were either referred through the domestic violence hotline or have been in counseling with the center, O’Connor said. When Eileen Rohan, a resident of the block and one of the lead organizers of the meeting, opened the discussion, she pointed out that the large number of community members have lived in the area for well over 10 years. The transient nature of the facility was a ma- jor problem for some — most residents will not stay over six months O’Connor said — but the anxiety over the facility covered a broad spectrum. energy costs? Concerns voiced at the meeting also included the subdivision of a “ four-story brownstone into such tight units; the possibility of jilted hus- bands tracking down their spouses, and the cultural makeup of the facil- ity, which would be comprised of Asian women. “We don’t speak Chinese either,” one man said. “How are we going to be neighbors with people we can’t even communicate with?” Salvatore Russo, a resident of Carroll Gardens and a criminal de- fense attorney, protested the subdivision of the building and threat- ened a lawsuit, without specifying grounds. “I think you’re setting up a dormitory on a one-, two-, three-story residential block,” Russo said. “If you bought an eight-family home New Yorkers use more electricity in the summer, and did what you wanted to do with it, nobody would have anything and the air conditioner uses more power than to say about it.” But when O’Connor asked, “If we just put four families, would most other home appliances, except the you be all right?” she was met with murmurs and few “no’s.” fridge — which operates non-stop all-year round.

More than a decade ago, the DOT announced that the crumbling Gowanus Expressway — a 5.7-mile stretch of elevated highway running from the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway down to the Ver- razano Narrows Bridge — required a major overhaul. Since that time, community groups have feverishly fought to have a tunnel replace the roadway. Keeping Cool ON IT conEd.com Over the next few years, the agency plans to spend $44 million on small patch jobs along the roadway. In 2007, the state DOT plans to spend $300 million to replace the deck of the expressway. That money is designated for over a nine- year period, according to Harold Fink, director of the Gowanus Ex- pressway Project for the state DOT. According to Fink, these “emergency repairs” are just a short- term solution to the Gowanus’ problems. “Eventually a much more serious solution has to be found. It’s certainly not this,” Fink said. “This is just a way to ensure opera- tional service for a limited period of time.” Approximately $10 million to $15 million is spent maintaining the expressway each year, according to the state DOT. Asked if the tunnel was still in the works, Fink said, “Anything is possible if funding could be provided.” —Deborah Kolben ©2003 Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc.

In his statement, the 26-year-old artist writes, “Modern society is a mas- sive trash-producing machine — the moment some- thing becomes redundant it joins the waste piles of the world. It is my interest to bring life back into these objects, binding then together to make new objects with new meaning and significance.
