DC-based Penzance was set to develop the one-story building at 4000 North Fairfax Drive in Ballston (above), home to the popular bar Carpool, but now it looks like it will pass the baton.

After receiving approval to build a 22-story apartment building on the site, Penzance, with its partner, Lionstone Investments, is looking to sell the property, the Washington Business Journal reports.
