DEVELOPERS given the green light for a city centre riverside ‘masterplan’ will today (November 28) learn the fate of the 'final piece' of its wider proposal on the same street.

A decision is expected from a City of York Council planning committee meeting on the Helmsley Group’s proposals to partially demolish 5

Coney Street to form a walkway to the riverside, create new floorspace at 3,5 and 7 Coney Street – which are Grade II listed buildings - for shops, restaurants with terraces to the rear, and seven residential apartments via the creation of additional storeys.

JD Sports occupies number 3 Coney Street, Lush Cosmetics recently vacated number 5 and moved further along Coney Street, and number 7 is occupied by fashion retailer Mango.

The walkway would run between 3 and 7, Coney Street and run south along the riverside to the City Screen cinema.
