In Arlington, as elsewhere, local business is not static.

Stores and restaurants are continuously being opened, closed or sold. In this ongoing series, we list some of the businesses being offered for sale via BizBuySell, an online aggregator.

The businesses are described but not named in the listings. Eagle-eyed readers who have followed our previous business sale posts this year, however, may have noticed at least one apparently listed business that has since closed and another that is changing to another restaurant.
