Abstract: Factory location in large urban areas is more difficult today as the sites are more likely to be used for residential and commercial facilities. This study investigates factors behind factory land use change, based on the redevelopment theory. Estimation is made using 1,824 land-use data in Osaka, a large urban area in Japan, between 2013 and 2018. Our new insight is that the diseconomy of the mixed land-use greatly impacts the land redevelopment of factory sites. In addition, the loose restriction of zoning districts and lack of localization economies of the factory also promote factory land redevelopment.
