Planners have recommended the final stages of a £200 million development are given the go-ahead.
Proposals for Block G of the New England Quarter, near Brighton train station,will be considered by Brighton and Hove City Council on Wednesday.
Work on the former locomotive yard could begin in September and be finished by next summer if permission is granted.
The £10 million scheme, known as Gladstone Row, includes two terraces of three-bedroom town houses, a five-storey apartment building, office space and room for bicycles and car parking.
Developers, Brighton-based Quoin Estates and Development, are being asked to contribute towards sustainable transport and a childrens play area, plus pay for a piece of public art at the entrance to the land.
The scheme is one of the final sections of the New England Quarter development. Barratt Homes has secured planning permission for a mix of flats and houses on another section and work has begun on a language school in a separate block.
Earlier this month an application to build what would be the UKs most environmentally-friendly development was received for Blocks E and F.
