Abstract

Demand externality generated by the agglomeration of commercial activities is a poten- tial source of city formation. We study the impact of a large-scale urban redevelopment program involving the construction of a shopping complex at the center of Tokyo. The redevelopment program increased the land price and commercial building use in its neighborhood. It also increased the total sales of neighborhood rms but not their pro ts. We argue that the redevelopment program generated substantial demand ex- ternality but the bene t fell on the landlord.
