The Waterloo House development in Fawcett Street, Fishergate, was formerly the site of the Plumbase store, which closed in 2019.
It is opposite the £50 million student development, on the old Mecca Bingo site now known as Rialto House.
City of York Council originally objected to the development of a five-storey, 105 bedroom student accommodation. According to planning documents submitted to the council, the current development will house 83 studio flats.
