An exploratory study of office location behavior in greater Seattle

Auteur :
DANIELS, P. W.

Description :
The A. examines the case of Greater Seattle with reference to the relationship between public policies for office development and empirical evidence of office location change within the metropolitan area. Data on the intrametropolitan movement of offices, the reasons for location choice, and the evidence of in-migration from outside the Puget Sound region have been collected. These data suggest that office location behavior in Seattle does not mirror events in other U.S. cities| its office economy remains highly centralized, intraurban migration has been limited, and suburban centers must rely heavily on in-situ growth of indigenous office enterprises.
