It’s very interesting how the two names ‘teardrop site’ and ‘York Central’ have been used. I get the impression that the far more dynamic and positive-sounding ‘York Central’ is the term we’re supposed to be using now, but clearly the ‘teardrop’ name sticks, a quick Google makes clear. More on hearts and teardrops and dynamic visions on these pages very soon.
