The scheme – designed by SPPARC Architecture – was approved by planning officers under delegated authority in May, and planning permission was formally issued this month after a section 106 agreement was signed.
The approved development includes a new Black Horse pub facing Great Dover Street, and a flexible retail unit facing Tabard Street.
The current building dates from 1965 but there has been a pub on the site for at least 230 years.
