In Marin County, just outside of San Francisco, the filmmaker has proposed building a new office complex that looks remarkably like William Randolph Heart‘s famous Casa Grande section of Hearst Castle, the portion of the gigantic estate the newspaper baron built in the 1920s that everyone seems to just refer to as the entire “Hearst Castle.”
