Current Status and Public Record
Despite the scheduled timeline, no plan review or inspection has been recorded since the initial registration. Therefore, whether the Proposed Commercial Kitchen & Storage proceeded as planned is not confirmed in the public record. The TDLR status remains Project Registered, but the lack of inspection data means the physical completion of the interior build-out is unverified. Readers should note that construction status and business opening are distinct; the record only covers the construction filing.
In terms of market comparison, the $185,000 estimated cost is below the Harris County median of $750,000 for new construction, placing it in the bottom quarter of filings by cost. The $101 per square foot figure is close to the county median of $88. TDCK Architects has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $52,800,000, including an Office Warehouse at Rankin and JYC Foods.
