York Theatre Royal is a theatre in St Leonard's Place, in York, England, which dates back to 1744. The theatre currently seats 750 people. Whilst the theatre is traditionally a proscenium theatre, it was reconfigured for a season in 2011 to offer productions in-the-round. The theatre puts on many of its own productions, as well as hosting touring companies, one of which is Pilot Theatre, a national touring company which often co-produces its work with the theatre. Additionally the main stage and studio are regularly used by local amateur dramatic and operatic societies. York Theatre Royal was one of the co-producers of the historic York Mystery Plays 2012 which were staged in York Museum Gardens between 2–27 August. The theatre reopened on Friday 22 April 2016 following a £6million redevelopment, with a new roof, an extended and re-modelled front of house area, a refurbished and redecorated main auditorium and with major improvements to access and environmental impact.

The York Dispensary is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The York Dispensary was established in 1788 in a room in Merchant Adventurers' Hall. It provided free treatment to poor patients, and its doctors undertook home visits when necessary. In 1808, it moved into a house on St Andrewgate, then a purpose-built building on New Street in 1829. In 1899, it needed larger premises, and moved to a building on Duncombe Place, designed by Edmund Kirby and constructed at a cost of £6,000. The dispensary closed in 1948, following the founding of the National Health Service, and the following year, the building became a health service centre run by the city corporation. The building was Grade II listed in 1975. Kirby was originally commissioned by the firm of solicitors, Messrs Gray, Dodsworth and Cobb to build offices. When the neighbouring site was purchased by the dispensary, it also took on Kirby, and tasked him with constructing both buildings in the same style.The building is constructed of red brick, with moulded brick dressings, stone window surrounds, tiled roofs, finials in terracotta and wrought iron, and a weathervane in the style of a snake. It has two main storeys, a basement, and an attic, with various gables and turrets. The former dispensary has an arched entrance with original double doors, and a carved stone panel above displaying the city's coat of arms and the text "YORK DISPENSARY". There is also an arched carriage entrance, with wrought iron gates, with "PATIENTS ENTRANCE" inscribed above. Inside, the original dispensary and office staircases survive, as do various doors, architraves and cornices.

The Museum Street Tavern, formerly Thomas's of York, is a historic pub in the city centre of York, in England. The building which houses the pub was first constructed in about 1700. In about 1800, it became part of Ettridge's Royal Hotel, and at some point in the 1820s, it was heightened from two to three storeys. In 1858, it was bought by William Thomas, an experienced hotellier, who renamed the hotel after himself. The remainder of the old hotel was demolished, and the Museum Street facade of the remaining building was altered, with work completed in 1863. Thomas sold the pub in 1876, to Thomas Lightfoot, a brewer from Bedale, but its name was retained. In 1900, it was purchased by John Smith's Brewery. At the time, it had eight bedrooms, a bar, two drawing rooms, a coffee room and a billiard room. The building is constructed of dark brown brick. The staircase and some first-floor doors are original, while the fireplaces and some plaster work date from the 1863 alterations. There is late-19th-century stained glass around the wide door, with a colourful design in the tympanum above, incorporating the name "Thomas's Hotel". The pub was Grade II listed in 1978. By 2022, it was owned by the Stonegate Pub Company, which closed it for conversion into a Be At One cocktail bar. In 2023 it reopened as the Museum Street Tavern.

1–5 Blake Street is a Grade II listed terrace of buildings in the city centre of York, in England.The current terrace originated in the 16th century, as a large, timber-framed, building, with four parallel ranges, gabled to the street and to the rear, covering what is now 1 and 3 Blake Street. This was probably a two-storey building, and is described by the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England as having been "exceptional in the city in its degree of elaboration". To the rear of the building was a yard, now fully enclosed, with a Magnesian Limestone wall which appears to have been built from stone shaped in the 12th century.In the 17th century, the northernmost range was extended to project to the rear, and late in the century, an attic storey was added to part of 1 Blake Street. The building was remodelled in the second quarter of the 18th century, with the a new front to Blake Street built in brick, the roof largely replaced, and a new staircase added at the rear. The street may have been widened at this point, so the front may be on an entirely new alignment. 5 Blake Street was built at the same time, with a front in the same style, and it may also include some remains of an earlier timber-framed building. Repeated alterations in the 19th and 20th century include further extensions to the rear of the terrace, new shop fronts for 1 and 5 Blake Street and the removal of some internal walls, but the Georgian windows survive, unusually, in 3 Blake Street, even at ground floor level.The Blake Street facade is 11 bays long and two storeys high, and there are nine sash windows at first floor level. There is a drainpipe head dated 1765. Inside, the first floor of 1 Blake Street has some 17th century panelling, which may have been moved from elsewhere. 3 Blake Street has a 17th-century door frame on the ground floor, and a late 17th century staircase. Its first floor is combined with that of 5 Blake Street. One room has early-17th century panelling, and there are several Georgian fireplaces and cornices. 5 Blake Street has a 19th-century domed ceiling with a rooflight which previously lit a spiral staircase, later removed.

The Eagle & Child is a pub on High Petergate, in the city centre of York, in England. The building was constructed in the early 17th-century, as a three-storey timber-framed building, with attics and a jettied front. In the 18th-century, the building was altered internally, and a brick extension was added at the rear, shared with the neighbouring Petergate House. The building's staircase survives from this period. Late that century, bays were added at the front, which survive at the first- and second-floor levels. There is a large chimney between the front and rear rooms of the original part of the building, with fireplaces surviving from the 17th-, 18th- and early-19th centuries. The building was further altered in the 20th-century, and the ground floor shopfront dates from this era.By the mid-1960s, the building was a restaurant, when the Rolling Stones signed their names in lipstick on the wall of the top floor, graffiti which has been preserved. In 1977, the restaurant became Plunketts, which operated until 2015. That year, the Leeds Brewery converted it into the Eagle & Child pub, the name taken from a pub which operated on The Shambles from the 1700s until 1925. In 2017, it was taken over by Camerons Brewery, who refurbished the pub.The building has been grade II* listed since 1954.

Petergate House (or Oratory House) is a grade II* listed building in the city centre of York, in England. A previous building on the site was constructed about 1500, and its later owners included Thomas Herbert and Henry Swinburne. William Turner bought it in 1723, and largely demolished it, only a single passageway surviving. The new house was of three storeys and seven bays, with a stucco front, lined to resemble stonework, while the rear is of brick.In the 19th-century, a new mansard roof was added, as was a two-storey semicircular bay to the rear. The interior was also largely remodelled, and the staircase was altered and moved. From the original fittings, several fireplaces survive, as does much of the decoration of the left-hand front room on the ground floor. The top of the staircase includes some reused balusters from about 1700.The building serves as the rectory for the York Oratory. It is the home of the Fathers of the Oratory and its garden is occasionally opened to the public.
