Where to Stay When Visiting Leidos (Reston)
Leidos's headquarters is in Reston. Three airports serve the DC area — and Metro reaches some campuses. Which you pick decides the trip.
Leidos is a defense, IT, and science-and-technology contractor, headquartered at 1750 Presidents St, Reston, VA 20190. That's the Dulles Technology Corridor — Reston and Herndon along the Dulles Toll Road, the heart of Northern Virginia's defense-and-tech contractor belt (General Dynamics, Leidos, CACI, SAIC), now on Metro's Silver line.
“Leidos is in the Dulles corridor in Reston. Book near Reston Town Center, fly Dulles fifteen minutes away, and you've barely left the airport's orbit.”— Rachel Julian, Founder & Editor-in-Chief
