Pruneyard Shopping Center


The PruneYard Shopping Center is a sprawling 250,000 square foot (23,000 m²) shopping center located in Campbell, California at the intersection of Campbell Avenue and Bascom Avenue, just east of State Route 17. It also features three office towers built in 1970, one of which is the tallest building in the area outside downtown San Jose. In the Center there is an inn, many shops and a movie theater built in 1964 and renovated in 1994.

In the late 1970s, the PruneYard was involved in a free speech dispute with local high school students that was ultimately decided by the U.S. Supreme Court on June 9, 1980. In American constitutional law, the PruneYard is famous for its role in establishing two important rules:
