York Central is a development on former railway land to the west of York railway station in York, England. The 45-hectare (110-acre) site is one of the largest brownfield developments in England. York Central is sometimes referred to as The Teardrop, because of the shape the development takes when viewed from above. Work on York Central started in 2021, and is expected to deliver 2,500 homes and 1,200,000 square feet (110,000 m2) of commercial space.
