An account of the resource
Robert E. Simon, Jr., is the man most responsible for the creation of Reston, Virginia. Born in New York City in 1914 and educated at Harvard, Simon took over the family real estate management and development business in 1935.

The collection consists of photographs, news clippings, promotional material and booklets relating to Reston.
