The old police station in Green Lane, Birchills, was demolished in 2019 after officers moved out of the six-storey building in October 2016.
The station had served as the town's primary police base for 50 years and was one of 27 to be closed by West Midlands Police at the time in a bid to generate cash.
Planning permission was granted to build more than 100 flats in March 2022 - but no more applications have been submitted since.
