The evidence
| Permit | Type | Filed | Status |
|---|---|---|---|

Permit numbers link to each record on the City of Tampa’s permitting site. Status is as the City listed it on Sept. 25, 2026. Supporting permits are other permits for the same project: at the same address and naming the same place, citing one another, or covering another phase of the same building.
When we spotted it
This permit was already active when Tampa Thinks started watching City permits on Sept. 25, 2026. We found it in the existing permits. That isn’t when it was filed, and it doesn’t make it new.
What this means
This permit describes work at a place. A building permit is the City’s record of planned construction; it doesn’t say when the work will finish, and some permitted work is never done.
The sentence above is written from the permit’s details by fixed rules. Where the permit leaves something out, such as the tenant, we say so rather than guess. We don’t republish the permit’s own text. How Spotted works.
