Abstract
Despite Cleopatra’s injunction, the journalistic profession is constantly accused of preferring, even encouraging, bad news while ignoring, even suppressing, good news. It has therefore been reassuring to follow The Reston’s Times’ full coverage of the award bestowed on Reston as a “National Historic Planning Landmark” by the American Institute of Certified Planners at the annual meeting of the American Planning Association in Chicago on April 16. This is the most prestigious award which planners may confer on any U.S. community. At the same meeting Robert E. Simon, Jr., Reston’s first developer, was given the AICP’s National Planning Pioneer award, the most prestigious award which planners may confer on an individual community planner, builder or developer.
