Haworth Tompkins is proud to be part of the world-class architectural team announced for the transformative £2.5 billion York Central regeneration project, one of the UK’s largest and most ambitious city centre developments.

Working alongside masterplan lead Allies and Morrison and an acclaimed group of architects and landscape designers including Grant Associates, Sheppard Robson, Cartwright Pickard, Corstorphine & Wright, 3DReid & Re-Form Landscape, Haworth Tompkins will take the lead on designing the affordable housing for the site. Our focus will be on delivering high-quality, sustainable homes that are accessible to all and designed with long-term community value in mind.

This project reflects our ongoing commitment to creating inclusive, beautifully designed places to live, and we are excited to help shape a vibrant new neighbourhood at the heart of York’s future.
