Renowned architect Eero Saarinen designed the magnificent building that serves as a gateway in and out of the United States. Today, the once peaceful farming area and small villages have turned into a fast-paced business world filled with thousands of new homes and residents. This rich pictorial history unfolds during the area's tranquil period of the 1950s and continues on through the confiscation of over 10,000 acres of land by the federal government, along with the removal of buildings, relocation of residents, and new construction. Author and community historian Margaret C. Peck is a lifelong Herndon resident. This is her second book published with Arcadia. As an active member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Sully Foundation, and the Historical Societies of Fairfax County and Herndon, Peck stays involved with the preservation of the area's history.
