WOODBRIDGE — In 2008, a proposed development called Prince William Overlook failed to win the hearts and minds of county leaders, and they voted down a request to rezone 10 acres of the land for a new housing development.

They want it so much, last year the Board of Supervisors agreed to give nearly a half-million dollars in economic incentives to a firm named “Brickyard,” which operates a co-working space Loudoun County, to open a co-work space at Neabsco Common.
