The Office Locational Changes and the Transformation of Intra-urban Central Place Structure at the Business Recession Period : a Case of Regional Capital Cities

本研究从区域首府城市内部区域的办公集聚趋势的角度来考虑城市内部的中心场所结构。本研究使用的主要数据为办公用地的总建筑面积、需求面积和供给面积，主要研究结果如下：第一，原有办公活动中心场所的办公集聚趋势没有改变。因此，城市内部的中心场所层级办公地点并没有改变。这一特征不同于零售和服务活动的结构特征。也就是说，根据以往的中心地研究结果，不同级别的中心地分布在每个城市。相比之下，办公活动的中心场所层次结构特征表现为最高场所具有压倒性的中心性，次要中心场所靠近最高场所，各区域首府城市的中心火车站周围形成了次、次办公活动中心。

This study to consider of the intra-urban central place structure from a pointview of office agglomeration trends by intra-urban area in the regional capital cities. Main used data for this study are total floor area, demand area and supply area of office use.The main results are summerized as follows.Firstly, office agglomeration trend in the former central places of office activities are not changed. Therefore, the intra-urban central place hierarchy of office location has not be changed. This characteristic is different from the one of the structure due to retail and service activities. That is to say, according to the former central place studies results, various level central places are located in each cities. By contrast the characteristic of central place hierarchy of office activities shows that the highest place has the overwhelming centrality and the second order central places lacate near the highest place.Secondary, sub-center of office activity has been formed around the central railway station in each regional capital cities.
