A restaurant tips its hand long before it opens: a formation, a build-out permit, a business license, a liquor application. We fuse those King County public records into one read on who is on their way, and refresh it weekly. Each edition below is a dated snapshot you can cite and come back to. Newest first. Watching the earlier end of the pipeline? The build-out permits page tracks Seattle projects before they have a name.
