A planned new apartment/retail complex across from Erlanger Hospital will be eight stories tall.
Developer Ken Defoor went before the City Council on Tuesday night to get a six-story height restriction changed to eight.
He said Erlanger and UTC had no problems with the request.
City Council Chairman Moses Freeman said he knew of no opposition from neighborhood associations other than some traffic concerns.
The site owned by Jimmy and Molly Seal is at the southeast corner of Third Street and Central Avenue.
Belle Investment initially said it planned 220 apartment units as well as ground floor commercial and parking.
The site is 2.62 acres.
