Abstract: We introduce a new family of Poisson vertex algebras $mathcalW(mathfraka)$ analogous to the classical $mathcalW$-algebras. The algebra $mathcalW(mathfraka)$ is associated with the centralizer $mathfraka$ of an arbitrary nilpotent element in $mathfrak{gl}_N$. We show that $mathcalW(mathfraka)$ is an algebra of polynomials in infinitely many variables and produce its free generators in an explicit form. This implies that $mathcalW(mathfraka)$ is isomorphic to the center at the critical level of the affine vertex algebra associated with $mathfraka$.
