Project Details and Status
Bulbul Lounge is the owner of record, and CMJ Bruder serves as the design firm. Janel Carona Bloom is the registered accessibility specialist for this filing.

Construction was scheduled to begin in November 2025, with a completion date of April 2026 listed on the filing.
Because the scheduled completion date has passed, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the project’s true status remains pending in the administrative file. The City of Houston has one permit on file at this street address, issued in January 2026, described as an 8,428 SF change of use for a restaurant.
