The daughter and two granddaughters of Romeo Holland Guest traveled across the country from California to make a “roots” visit to North Carolina this week. The family wanted to revisit Romeo Guest’s role in the formation of the Research Triangle Park and learn more about the construction company bearing his name. Romeo Guest is known as “Father of the Research Triangle” and played a major role in the development of what is known today as Research Triangle Park.”Greensboro News 1977” Lucia Guest Bennhoff; her daughters Jenn and Kris; and two close friends from Greensboro toured Romeo Guest Associates’ home office, downtown Durham, the Duke University campus, Duke Chapel, the Research Triangle Park, and visited the Research Triangle Foundation.
