WETA to feature Reston in upcoming show

WETA’s latest season of “If You Live Here” will feature the community’s story, art and people on Feb. 14 at 8 p.m.. on WETA Metro and 9 p.m. on WETA PBS. Producers describe Reston as one of America’s most successful planned communities.

The show is a house-hunting series hosted by best friends Christine Louise and John Begeny. The hosts tour homes and communities with local realtors and explore neighborhoods in the DC Metro area.

Here’s more from WETA on the show.

This episode shares the history and vision of Robert E. Simon, the “R-E-S” in Reston, and how the water, paths and public art connect residents. Hosts John and Christine visit 3 different homes -with ponds, trails and penthouse views – guided by the show’s first mother-daughter/resident-realtor team, Boofie and Margaret O’Gorman (left). 

Other areas on the show include Bowie, Capitol Hill, Del Ray Alexandria, Falls Church and Brookland.
