The other week told you about how George Lucas, finally fed up with the rich Marin NIMBYs bitching about his LucasArts expansion plans in Lucas Valley, gave up on his plans to build there and is now seeking another city in which to build a huge new production facility. S.F. Mayor Ed Lee would like Lucas to do it in S.F., of course. But now Walnut Creek has written an empassioned plea to Lucas to take a bunch of vacant office and industrial property off their hands.
NBC Bay Area covers the story as if it actually means something that they even asked Lucas has not yet responded, and the Shadelands property they're proposing looks kind of sad!
But anyway, the mayor sounds real excited! And he wants to remind everyone that the human genome was first mapped at Shadelands, for whatever that's worth.
