Capturing its founding as a welcoming area of Virginia where people of all backgrounds could plant roots, Reston demonstrates the definition of community, from its beautifully constructed buildings to its array of people.

Reston, Virginia, was named utilizing the initials of its founder, Robert E. Simon Jr. In 1961, Simon purchased over 6,000 acres of wooded farmland between Washington, DC, and the soon-to-be opened Dulles International Airport to build a planned community where all could live, work, and play. Since its founding, Reston challenged the norms of the day by establishing an open community, fighting for affordable housing, and building a sense of belonging through its Restonian-led community organizations like Reston Black Focus, Common Ground Foundation, and more. This collection of vintage images portrays the people, places, and events that have built Reston into the thriving community it is today. Its unique architecture and design both inspire and evoke nostalgia.
