from the HP Computer Museum website:

The Advanced Products Department began its life with the 1972 introduction of the HP-35 handheld calculator (which had been developed at HP Labs). The HP-35 was the most exciting product ever introduced by HP. The APD was an immediate success and moved from 10900 Wolfe Road to a nearby leased building at 19310 Pruneridge Avenue where it experienced explosive growth. Although it was on the market for less than three quarters of the year, the HP-35 accounted for 41 percent of HP's profit in fiscal 1972 (with more than 50,000 units delivered). APD introduced the HP-80 business handheld calculator in January of 1973.

Couldn't find any picture of the building itself though.
