York Way
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
York Way (part of the A5200) is a major road in north London running north for one mile from the junction of Pentonville Road and Euston Road, adjacent to King's Cross railway station towards Kentish Town and Holloway. At its northern end the road becomes Brecknock Road. For its entire length York Way forms the boundary between the London Boroughs of Islington and Camden. It was renamed from York Road in 1938.
The road passes the new Kings Place development, Bingfield Park, crosses the Regent's Canal, and runs alongside the King's Cross redevelopment area.
The red tiled surface building of the disused York Road Underground station is located approximately 0.5 miles north of King's Cross station, on the corner of Bingfield Street. The station was closed in 1932.
