Abstract

The high vacancy rate of the urban office slows regional economic growth, weakens the city’s competitiveness, and causes social problems such as urban hollowing and slumming. Currently, the domestic office market has an unprecedented high vacancy rate due to the long-term economic downturn, so it is urgent that it is studied and solved. Thus, based on the definition of the vacancy rate in the city office and the theory on the factors of vacancy, this study examined cases of advanced cities that successfully regenerated high office vacancies in the city, the economic growth rate, office demand through rent, as well as the correlation between the vacancy rate and corresponding changes in the number of urban dwellings. Through this, the government wants to propose a plan to solve the long-term and high vacancy rate of the central offices in Korea. As a result of this study, it is necessary to analyze the problems of real estate regarding the empty offices in the city center to solve the vacancy rate, and it is necessary to respond to and implement the government’s real-estate policy to solve this problem. Also, the social consensus and responsibility of city members is needed to solve urban problems due to the high office vacancy rate. Through this study, it is expected that transforming the surplus office space in the city into useful space will be a viable opportunity for the city to develop.
