Abstract:
Report titled Brave New Town, by Edward Carpenter, reprinted from Industrial Design, March 1964. By fall 1964 a town will have sprung full blown from the wooded, hilly countryside near Washington, D.C. What is surprising is that the countryside will still be there and what is significant is that the entire town is being designed with a vengeance, as if one carefully thought out, attractive town might save the world. This article gives the background of Reston and the planned community concept; information of the designs and developers; and many pictures and graphics detailing Reston's progress.
