As with Cornwall Terrace and Clarence Terrace, York Terrace was constructed by the company of James Burton,^[7] to a design by John Nash^[8] and Decimus Burton.^[9]

There are two blue plaques on York Terrace East, at the Doric Villa at Nos. 19 and 20, for the psychoanalyst Ernest Jones^[10] and the actor-manager Sir Charles Wyndham respectively.^[11][12]
