The purpose of this paper is to clarify the office location pattern in the city centre of Hiroshima city. The main results are summarized as follows.Firstly, factor analysis is applied for giving a static analysis of the locational specialization tendency. Six office factors could be interpreted. They are namely, (1) Heavy-chemical industry·financial business factor (2) Judical and administration service factor (3) Business service factor (4) Public service factor (5) Light industry factor (6) Textile and toiletry industry factor Therefore it is pointed out that offices in the city centre of Hiroshima city are locational-specialized in these six groups. From the distributional tendency of the factor scores, it is found that four office groups (heavy-chemical industry·financial business, judical and administration service, business service, public service) locate closely each other, and form the core of the office location pattern in the city centre.Secondly, by the application of cluster analysis, seven groups of office business district can be identified. They are as follows:(A) Amusement, Hiroshima station neighborhood, peripheral district group (B) Central commercial district group (C) Transitional zone of CBD district group (D) Semi-central office district group (E) Public service district group (F) Business service district group (G) Central office distict groupThirdly, in order to deal with the dynamic side of the office location pattern in the city centre, office migration pattern and its factors are analyzed. On the migration pattern two big migration movements of offices could be recognized, (1) From other urban area excluding the city centre and its peripheral distrist to CBD (2) From CBD to the peripheral district of CBD In the former case, migration is caused by the advantages which could be obtained in the city centre such as the convenience to attend offices, and to have business contact and the prestige. On the other hand, in the latter case migration is caused by the requirement of wider office space which is difficult to obtain in CBD.Lastly, from the analysis of locational valuation, it is pointed out that the contact condition, the traffic condition, and the space condition are the three major locational conditions of offices in the city centre. The contact condition is the most important especially in the case of Hiroshima city, and the CBD is relatively higher than the peripheral district on all these three. It is also recognized that the districts in the analyzed region show differences in their locational condition.In short, this paper attempts to show the office location pattern in the city centre of Hiroshima city from the static and dynamic points of view. The static point deals with the locational specialization tendency and the types of office business district. The dynamic side discusses the office migration pattern and its factors. Reference is made to the office locational condition from the analysis of locational valuation. This is the preliminary study which tries to make clear the general characteristics of office location pattern in the city centre of main Japanese cities. In future, the author will attempt to undertake case studies on the cities which have different size and nature in the static approach, and the dynamic approach will include the analysis of the relationship between the office migration pattern and office size, capital size of the firm, the assortment of head office or branch office.
