The Long John Silver's location at 5214 4th Street represents a specific addition to the commercial landscape of Lubbock. The filing details provide a clear picture of the scale and cost involved, while the lack of a final inspection record means the physical completion of the structure remains unverified in the state's public database. The project stands as a distinct entry in the county's construction records, with all figures derived directly from the TDLR submission.
