Developer eyes up footballing street names
Die-hard fans of Hull City could one day move into a new home on Black and Amber Way.
Developers building hundreds of new homes on Hull City’s former home have come up with a list of names for streets.
Together with the football club, Strata Homes have drawn up the list for the Boothferry Park site, including Legends Way, Bunkers Hill Road and Raich Carter Avenue – after the great sportsman who played for Hull City from 1948 to 1952.
