Scott Jacobs – CEO, Landbank Investments
 
 
Jacobs’ grandfather purchased the 18-acre site in Sunnyvale, California, in the 1950s, when it was a pear orchard. In the 1970s, his son, Jacobs’ father, developed the site into nine single-story, concrete tilt-up buildings that housed some of the pioneering technology companies that helped create Silicon Valley.  Jacobs’ vision is a LEED Platinum-certified office campus known as Central & Wolfe, named for its location at the intersection of Central Expressway and North Wolfe Road. Designed by HOK Architects, plans for the 777,000-square-foot campus include three interconnected curvilinear office buildings in the crude shape of a shamrock, a parking garage, and a two-story amenities building, inside of which would be such essentials as a cafeteria and a fitness center. Elsewhere on the campus, numerous smaller, ground-level amenities spaces include a coffee bar, general store, bike repair shop, bank, dry cleaner, barbershop, and health and wellness options.
