The master developers behind the homes, hotel and office scheme have told The Press they have ‘aspirations’ to create such a Lido as “a gift to the city".
It came as they outlined the progress made on York Central at an exclusive briefing for The Press.
York Central has been planned for decades and is finally coming to fruition thanks to £138 million of public funding to prepare the brownfield site, including roads and groundwork.
Developers McLaren Regeneration and Arlington Real Estate will deliver 2,500 homes and one million square feet of offices and retail in the £2 billion project on largely former railway sidings.
Tom Gilman, managing director of McLaren Regeneration and Allan Cook, managing director of Arlington Real Estate, stress they both seek a quality development to reflect the scheme’s importance, not only to York, but to the whole of the UK, as its largest, single regeneration project in decades.
