JQ Rise is located on land fronting Summer Hill Road and Goodman Street on the site of a former Mini showroom.
The new apartments are spread across three blocks of four, eight and 25 storeys respectively. The building has topped out two years after groundworks were laid and the internal fit out is now under way.
All 226 new homes have already been sold ahead of completion.
JQ Rise is among several Prosperity Group-led projects being developed across Birmingham, with work set to begin on 146 new homes in Kent Street and 687 new homes in Digbeth later this year.
