Red Tower, Foss Islands Road – OPEN Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st from 10-3pm.
In 2014 a group of volunteers from TIM in York approached the Council about opening up the building and making it a resource for local residents and visitors alike. The building was recently flooded and is now being used to store cleaning products as people get their homes back to normal. Following a highly successful Residents Weekend in 2015, the team are going to open the building on both days and welcome all-comers to visit. Organised by TIM and The Red Tower Project. No booking necessary. There is also a photo competition. See – https://www.facebook.com/redtowerproject/
