Don't know the history of it, but Langley is an area in the vicinity of
McLean north of Rte 123/Dolley Madison Boulevard, where the CIA's HQ are. 
Around town in places like the Pentagon, where I work, the CIA is known as
the Langley Home for the Bewildered.

People interested in food would be better advised to seek out the other
CIA, the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York.  It is a
school for chefs, and maybe the best in the country, but it also operates
four restaur-ants as part of student training, and the meals there can be
pretty wonderful.  The four restaurants are the Escoffier Room (French and
Swiss cuisine), the American Bounty, the Catharine di Medici Room, and the
St. Andrew's Cafe.  The last (so-called because in 1970 the CIA moved from
New Haven CT to a former Jesuit seminary, St. Andrew's on the Hudson, a
gorgeous castle-like setting) is dietetic, and fantastically good.  I
lucked into a friendship with the man who is now the culinary dean there
back in 1973, and it has been a wonderful part of my life ever since.
