City of York Council West Offices serve as the main administrative headquarters for the City of York Council. Located in a historic building formerly home to British Rail, West Offices now blend modern office functionality with elements of Victorian architecture. This civic hub handles council meetings, public services such as council tax, housing inquiries, planning applications, and information for residents. It is not a traditional city hall in the sense of a grand assembly chamber, but it acts as the central location for city governance and public affairs in York.
