Top reason, according to the Chicago Reader: George Lucas left his heart in San Francisco. Remember Chicagos bid for the 2016 Olympics, when we placed fourth behind Rio de Janeiro, Madrid, and Tokyo? Were not George Lucass first choice either. Theres very little solid information on the website for the proposed Lucas Cultural Arts Museum, but this mash note from Lucas to the Bay City is prominent: The Bay Area has always been home to forward-thinkers and artistic innovators—people who push to do things that havent been done before. Men like Eadweard Muybridge, Philo Farnsworth and Steve Jobs. Companies like Pixar, Adobe, and Facebook. Theres a history of invention here thats as exciting as it is infectious. Thats one of the reasons why Im here, why I raised my family here, and why I chose to start my own business here. Its also why I chose this remarkable region for a new museum.
