The scheme at 7 Brannan Street could play a valuable role in delivering sufficient student accommodation to support the contribution of higher education providers to London's economy.
Deputy mayor Jules Pipe argued that non-delivery of 912 student bed spaces is considered to impact upon the implementation of the London Plan, highlighting the need for more housing.
Councillors opposed to the scheme expressed concerns about potential anti-social behavior and disturbances for nearby residents, questioning if it was an appropriate location for student housing.
With only two objections from a consultation of 294 local addresses, support for the project suggests a greater community interest in addressing the housing demands for students.
