The plaintiff, New Jersey Coalition Against War in the Middle East is a non-profit, unincorporated association involved in organizing public opinion and political lobbying activities directed to peace efforts aimed at halting the expansion of hostilities in the Middle East. Nine of the ten defendants may be described generically as regional shopping centers. The tenth defendant may be described as a community shopping center. (See Appendix A—Stipulations as to each malls’ description.)
Plaintiffs seek relief in the nature of a permanent, mandatory injunctive order compelling the defendants to grant access to their private property so that an organization such as plaintiff may engage in expressive activity within the confines of a privately owned and enclosed commercial establishment. Plaintiffs argue their right under the New Jersey State Constitution to go into and upon defendants’ shopping malls to distribute flyers and handbills discussing their view as to the United States’ policy in the Middle East. Plaintiffs predicate this action upon the contention that private shopping malls in New Jersey have a constitutional obligation to provide a forum for expressive activity.
APPLICABLE LAW
While counsel have generated volumes of pretrial briefs, they all agree that the applicable and controlling case law in this litigation is State v. Schmid, 84 N.J. 535, 423 A.2d 615 (1980).
All counsel have acknowledged that Schmid is determinative. Plaintiffs have at times departed from Schmid and have gone on to argue that shopping malls are the equivalent of the traditional downtown center or town square. Plaintiffs argue that these private property owners are the new town squares and must accommodate the constitutional requirements of free speech and assembly. They argue that they have become quasi public forums.
*198Plaintiffs’ proofs have shown that public transportation, in the form of bus service, begins and ends at some of the malls. They have also shown that in at least one of the malls, police service is provided by the municipality. Some of the shopping malls employ a mix of private security officers and off duty, local police officers for security purposes. The local police officers’ presence is one of a uniformed officer with all of the necessary equipment attendant to police duties. None of the proofs reveal that the other functions of government such as municipal buildings, police stations, post offices, etc. appear in these private shopping mall settings. Proofs do reveal large concentrations of retail establishments. Department stores and individual retail establishments cause the congregation of large populations of people. Accepting and acknowledging all of the aforementioned proofs, I am of the opinion that they do not even begin to approach the necessary requirements of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution as set forth in the decision Lloyd Corp. v. Tanner, 407 U.S. 551, 92 S.Ct. 2219, 33 L.Ed.2d 131 (1972); Marsh v. Alabama, 326 U.S. 501, 66 S.Ct. 276, 90 L.Ed. 265 (1946). In his summation counsel for the plaintiff tacitly admits that the central issue in this litigation is not whether these shopping malls are public forums or town squares. Instead, he states, the issue is whether or not they meet the three prong test of Schmid and the requirements of the N.J. Constitution. Justice Handler states, “The United States Supreme Court has recently acknowledged in the most clear and unmistakable terms that a state’s organic and general law can independently furnish a basis for protecting individual rights of speech and assembly. PruneYard Shopping Center v. Robins, supra 447 U.S. [74] at 80-81, 100 S.Ct. [2035] at 2040, 64 L.Ed.2d [741] at 752.” Schmid, supra 84 N.J. at 553, 423 A.2d 615.
Continuing with his discussion of the applicability of the State Constitution in this setting in Schmid, Justice Handler states:
We conclude, therefore, that the State Constitution furnishes to individuals the complementary freedoms of speech and assembly and protects the reasonable exercise of those rights. These guarantees extend directly to governmental entities as well as to persons exercising governmental powers. They are also *199available against unreasonably restrictive or oppressive conduet on the part of private entities that have otherwise assumed a constitutional obligation not to abridge the individual exercise of such freedoms because of the public use of their properly. The State Constitution in this fashion serves to thwart inhibitory actions which unreasonably frustrate, infringe, or obstruct the expressional and associational rights of individuals exercised under Article I, paragraphs 6 and 18 thereof.
... This question brings us to the heart of the problem—the need to balance within a constitutional framework legitimate interests in private property with individual freedoms of speech and assembly.
In the comparable federal setting, private property not used by the public or made available for public use does not ordinarily become subject directly to restrictions in favor of the public. Hynes v. Oradell, 425 U.S. 610, 619-620, 96 S.Ct 1755, 1760, 48 L.Ed.2d 243, 252 (1976). Moreover, private property does not ‘lose its private character merely because the public is generally invited to use it for designated purposes.’ Lloyd Corp. v. Tanner, supra, 407 U.S. [551] at 569, 92 S.Ct. [2219] at 2229, 33 L.Ed.2d [131] at 143. See PruneYard Shopping Center v. Robins, supra, 447 U.S. at 82, 100 S.Ct. at 2041, 64 L.Ed.2d at 752; Hudgens v. NLRB, supra, 424 U.S. [507] at 519-520, 96 S.Ct [1029] at 1036, 47 L.Ed.2d [196] at 206-207. Nevertheless, as private property becomes, on a sliding scale, committed either more or less to public use and enjoyment, there is actuated, in effect, a counterbalancing between expressional and property rights. Marsh v. Alabama, supra, 326 U.S. [501] at 506, 66 S.Ct [276] at 278, 90 L.Ed. [265] at 268.
There is a parallel under our State Constitution. The state constitution equipoise between expressional rights and property rights must be similarly gauged on a scale measuring the nature and extent of the public’s use of such property. Thus, even as against the exercise of important rights of speech, assembly, petition and the like, private property itself remains protected under due process standards from untoward interference with or confiscatory restrictions upon its reasonable use. Robins v. PruneYard Shopping Center, supra, 23 Cal.3d [899] at 910-911, 592 P.2d [341] at 347-348, 153 Cal.Rptr. [854] at 860-861; see King v. South Jersey Nat'l Bank, supra, 66 N.J. [161] at 175 [330 A.2d 1 at 8]. The constitutional protection of private property against undue interference or ‘taking’ is secured by our own Constitution. N.J.Const. (1947), Art. I, pars. 1 and 20. Id. 84 N.J. at 561, 423 A.2d 615.
Thereafter the Schmid Court cautions that a balance must be struck between the private property owners’ rights and the ex-pressional freedoms of others upon the private property. It further instructs this court as to the three-prong test which must be applied to ascertain the parameters of the rights of speech and assembly upon privately-owned property and the extent to which such property reasonably can be restricted to accommodate these rights. The three prong test is enunciated at page 563 of Schmid. The Court held:
*200... that under the State Constitution, the test to be applied to ascertain the parameters of the rights of speech and assembly upon privately owned property and the extent to which such property reasonably can be restricted to accommodate these rights involves several elements. This standard must take into account (1) the nature, purposes, and primary use of such private property, generally, its ‘normal’ use, (2) the extent and nature of the public’s invitation to use that property, and (3) the purpose of the expressional activity undertaken upon such property in relation to both the private and public use of the property. This is a multi-faceted test which must be applied to ascertain whether in a given case owners of private property may be required to permit, subject to suitable restrictions, the reasonable exercise by individuals of the constitutional freedoms of speech and assembly.
APPLICATION OF SCHMID STANDARD TO THE FACTS
1. What is the nature, purpose and primary use of the private property involved in this litigation, generally its “normal” use?
It is this court’s opinion that that question may be answered unequivocally. The nature, purpose and primary use of the malls is commercial. The shopping malls are retail establishments, constructed, designed and maintained to do business and make a profit. I did not hear one fact at trial which controverts or contradicts this finding. The plaintiff offered no proofs which will lead this court to any other conclusion. The evidence and proofs offered by each of the defendants’ various witnesses, i.e., mall managers, architect familiar with the design and operation of enclosed shopping malls, planners and representatives of the malls’ ownership and/or management all testified that the purpose of the malls’ design and operation was to maximize sales and increase profits and thereby increase rentals. I find from all of the credible evidence which has been offered at this trial that each of these ten malls has dedicated its facilities and property to its primary purpose, that is, business and commercial ventures.
At trial, the plaintiffs offered the testimony of an expert witness qualified as a professional planner. This witness opined that since World War II, there had developed entities known as shopping malls. Prior to World War II, there were central places such as villages and cities with central business districts commonly known *201as “downtown.” The witness described a central business district as an area of concentrated activity and population with stores, walkways, common areas, parking areas and public transportation.
It was this witness’s opinion that the defendant shopping malls have assumed the characteristics of a central business district, that is, they have replaced the former central business districts of pre-World War II. This opinion was offered even though the witness acknowledged that shopping malls are designed to encourage people to remain there and shop, thus furthering the malls commercial goals. I do not accept this witness’s description as sufficient reasoning necessary for plaintiffs to meet the first prong of the Schmid, test.
2. The extent and nature of the public’s invitation to use this property.
As I have already found, each of the defendant shopping malls has as its purpose a commercial endeavor. They are not, however, to be treated as a single entity as the plaintiffs have urged. Each of them is different and distinct. The Mall at Short Hills and Riverside Square have common ownership and management. The Cherry Hill Mall and Woodbridge Center are owned and operated by another entity. Hamilton Mall and Quakerbridge Mall are owned and operated by a third entity. A fourth and distinct entity is the owner and manager of the Monmouth Mall. The Rockaway Town Square and the Livingston Mall are owned by separate and distinct entities and so is the Mall at Mill Creek. All of the malls with the exception of the Mall at Mill Creek are defined as “regional centers”.
The 1991 Directory of Shopping Centers in the United States defines a regional center as follows: “Provides shopping goods, general merchandise, apparel, furniture and home furnishings in full depth and variety. It is built around the full-line department store with a minimum (gross leasable area) of 100,000 square feet, as the major drawing power. For even greater comparative shopping, two, three or more department stores may be included. *202In theory, a regional center has a GLA of 400,000 square feet and can range from 300,000 to more than 1,000,000 square feet.”
The Mall at Mill Creek is a community shopping center and it is described in the Directory of Shopping Centers as follows: “A community mall has a wider range of facilities for the sale of soft lines (apparel), hard lines (hardware, appliances, etc.) than the neighborhood center. It is built around a junior department store, variety store or discount department store as the major tenant in addition to a supermarket. It does not have a full line department store. The typical size of a community center is 150,000 square feet. In practice, a community center can range from 100,000 to 300,000 square feet. A community center is an intermediate shopping center and is the most difficult to estimate for size and pulling power.”
There has been stipulated into evidence and attached to this opinion as an Appendix B, a list of all activities to which the public has been invited to in each, of the defendant shopping malls. While testimony has been offered by the plaintiffs as to the extent and nature of the public’s invitation to use the malls, particularly to walk for exercise, to browse, to attend promotional events, to dine, to congregate or to just sit about the malls, I find from the credible evidence that the primary purpose of each and every one of the activities listed on the attached Appendix B is to draw people to the mall and thereby maximize sales and increase profits. The malls have been designed to help customers focus upon the stores and the products contained in each of them. They are designed and managed to induce impulse buying which has been described by several of the witnesses as extremely important to the “lifeblood” of the shopping center. The anchor stores at either end of the mall, the common areas, landscaping and benches are all arranged to provide comfort and convenience for the prospective shopper.
All the common areas and walkways throughout these malls, are subject to maintenance charges imposed upon each of the tenants. The tenants’ use of these common areas is restricted except in the *203event of a mall sponsored promotion or event. The plaintiffs espouse a proposition which would make the common areas open to the public. They assert that except for reasonable restrictions which might be placed upon them, the public should be free to conduct the activities which plaintiffs propose in this litigation. From the credible evidence offered by the defendants, that is, the testimony of the mall managers, designers and planners, I find that the public’s invitation to each of the defendant malls is for the purpose of the owners’ and tenants’ business and does not extend to the activities of leafletting or the distribution of literature.
3. The purpose of the expressional activity undertaken upon such property in relationship to both the private and public uses of the property.
Each of the defendant malls has a policy concerning outside use of the mall facilities. I accept the testimony of the defendant mall managers as credible and uncontroverted that the activities which are promotional in nature and sponsored by the mall are done to promote sales. Further, the events conducted in common areas and described as income producing events such as boat and car shows are also sponsored for the purpose of increasing income and attracting customers or potential customers to the mall. Events described as customer-enhancement events such as Boy Scout sponsored events, Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, holiday events are all calculated to attract customers to the mall and to increase customer base. The events which are community oriented are performed and conducted by the malls to garner community goodwill and to display themselves as good corporate citizens. All of the above-described events are addressed to the ultimate goal of increasing sales and attracting customers.
There has been no testimony or proofs offered that any of the defendant malls permit free and unfettered access and/or activities to their mall premises whether it be in the interior common areas, on the sidewalks surrounding the mall buildings or in the parking lots which are adjacent to the mall premises. The credible testimony offered by the defendants indicates that activities which *204are perceived by mall management to be controversial in nature or confrontational are not permitted. Effectively, every effort is made to avoid two-sided issues. Specifically outside activities of either a religious or a political nature are avoided. This court does not accept the opinion of plaintiffs’ expert that the mall has replaced the central business district or the townsquare, nor does this court accept the plaintiffs’ position that all malls, particularly enclosed shopping malls are to be treated genetically and uniformly. In applying the balance between the protections to be accorded private property and those to be given to expressional freedoms exercised upon such property a factual analysis of each case must be made. The burden of proof is upon the plaintiff and that burden of proof is individual and unique as to each of the defendants named. This court is of the opinion that the plaintiff has failed in that burden.
The court is compelled to examine the facts as to the nature, purpose and primary use of the private property, the extent and nature of the public’s invitation to use that property and finally the purpose of the expressional activity undertaken upon such property in relation to both the private and public use of the property. As a result of judgments made by the owners and operators of each of the malls and policies which they have established, each has embarked upon a program as to how to best manage their property and conduct their business. The plaintiffs have not met their burden of proving that their activities are not discordant with both the public and private uses to which these shopping malls are dedicated.
For each of the reasons set forth aforesaid, judgment is entered on behalf of each defendant and against the plaintiffs of no cause for action. Judgment is entered on behalf of the plaintiff as against the defendants Prutaub Joint Venture and JMB Income Properties, Ltd-XI on these defendants’ counterclaim of no cause for action.
Judgment is entered without costs.
Plaintiff shall prepare the necessary Order.
