It plans to redevelop the site of the former Primark store in the Castlegate area to create just over 430 co-living flats.
Designed by architect Hodder + Partners, the £40m Kings Tower scheme involves the demolition of the vacant shopping store at 57 High Street.
SFGE hopes to start work this summer on the project which will become the city’s tallest building.
The client team includes building services consultant Novo Engineering and structural engineer Clancy Consulting, with Turner & Townsend acting as cost consultant.
King’s Tower will include one four-bed cluster, 37 five-bed clusters, 37 six-bed clusters, one seven-bed cluster and one 10-bed cluster.
The building will be clad in white brick-slips at the lower levels, with portland stone fluted columns for the higher floors.
Kings Tower will sit alongside phase 1 of the redevelopment of Kings Buildings, which comprises 26,000 sq ft of new retail and leisure space and the 131-bed easyHotel.
