Almaden Plaza Shopping Center Map

Though a few years old, they still have these maps out for one to take.

 

This center was originally built in the 1960s with Emporium as the primary anchor and several smaller shops.

 

However, as time went on, things changed, Emporium closed up following it's acquisition by Macy's and many of the shops were combined into larger tenant spaces facing the parking lots and not the landscaped central walkway.

 

Price Club (now Costco) also joined the center in the early 1990s, on part of a old residential area and the center's parking lot.

 

The Emporium building found new life after being gutted to become a multi tenant building, with Buy Buy Baby (former Circuit City) and Barnes &Noble on the first floor. Bed Bath & Beyond and Diddum's Party Store occupy the Second Floor.
