It's official: Everyone's favorite caffeinated calorie packer to the stars, Starbucks, will be colonizing the former Park Presidio Cafe in less than two months, just in time for George Lucas's post-production on the new India Jones film. And who else will we spot gulping down double frappaccinos avec whipped cream à la Britney? Weekend warriors hobbling through Chrissy Fields? Check. Winners of the Presidio Trust's bidding war on former officer's homes? Check. Unfortunately spandex-clad bikers? Check. Golden Retrievers? Check. Don Fisher, associates from Gluckman Mayner Architects, and every other figurehead involved in his tragically named pet project-to-come, the Contemporary Art Museum of the Presidio or "CAMP"? Check plus!
