Trading up and taking up

Article Abstract:

Brighton, England, is experiencing an enthusiastic take-up of office space, which is described as being both of high quality and low-cost. Businesses are settling in Brighton because of the large number of graduates in the area and the lack of suitable sites in nearby towns. The industrial market, however, is doing poorly because of the lack of sites in the vicinity. Towns such as Crawley and Burgess Hill are winning business that may otherwise have been situated in Brighton because they can offer new buildings and land.
