I grew up fascinated by how much Cupertino has changed over the years, so I spent the last couple of weeks putting together a timeline of Vallco Mall’s entire history.

I remember getting a $1 from my mom and having to find the extra 10cents , either In pay phones or wherever to buy a hamburger and fries at McDonalds.

I tracked down some old photos and vintage newspaper ads that I hadn’t seen collected in one place before.

If you grew up shopping there—or even worked there—I’d love to hear your memories. I’m sure there are plenty of stories I don’t know yet.

What store or memory immediately comes to mind when someone mentions Vallco?
