The Castle Gateway Plans On The Ground
19th February
Book here for 12noon walk / Book here for 13.30 walk
Meet on Eye of York

The planning application for the new public spaces in Castle Gateway and the Eye of York has been submitted. Join us to explore the designs.

The My Castle Gateway public conversation has shown that sense of place will be created both through changes in the built environment and through how we all use the new spaces and bring them to life.

In these 1 hour walks, you will be presented with the plans for the new public spaces in the Castle and Eye of York: What are the designs? How do they respond to the My Castle Gateway Open Brief? How will you use the spaces? There will then be a chance to reflect and open up discussion and questions.

From this session you will be in a strong position to be able to contribute comments to the formal planning consultation process and we will ensure everyone feels confident on how to do this following the walk.
