N17, the developer of the highly disputed Willow Park megatower project, officially filed a lawsuit against the city of Menlo Park on Friday, Oct. 2, that could be worth up to $6.65 million. But even if the developer wins in court, local officials say the project faces obstacles that go beyond the legal fight. The lawsuit came in response to the Menlo Park City Council’s refusal to approve the development, in a Sept. 29 meeting, despite pressure from California Attorney General Rob Bonta.
