An ordinance approving a zoning change for student apartments in Corryville has been passed unanimously by Cincinnati City council.

The project, to be developed by Daniel Schimberg of Uptown Rental Properties along , will consist of two new six-unit buildings with basement parking and the renovation of an existing 10-unit building.

Ground will be broken by the end of this month and the buildings should be ready for occupancy by the 2010-2011 academic year.

The project still must receive variances for front and side setbacks.
