How viability will shape York Central

Although the economics of large-scale developments are complex, the basic principles are reasonably straightforward and open to anyone to understand. We have heard many times that the site is “expensive”, but how expensive, and what implications does this have? How much does it drive questions of density and building height, and does it restrict – or conversely encourage – opportunities to pursue innovative ideas within the development?

This will be a workshop session with talks by a number of people who can bring expertise and practical experience to the discussion, who will also be there to facilitate debate and help us finish with concrete next steps which we can take together. Guests will include:-

Andy Dainty – Urbo Regeneration
