Inviting prospects

Article Abstract:

Nottingham, England, is seeking to attract investment. The city has been affected by the decline of manufacturing industry and unemployment levels are 13.3%. The economy is moving into new activities and is less focused on the traditional activities of coal, cycles, cigarettes and clothes. The city offers good communications and a central UK location, qualities which have attracted the Inland Revenue and other incomers. There is a need for infrastructure improvements and more office space which may be supplied through a construction boom.

Article Abstract:

Nottingham, England, has seen a construction boom which includes a canalside quarter in the south side, and office developments in the center. The city was hit by coal mine closures in the early 1990s, but has benefited from a flexible labor force and a diverse economy. The financial services sector has grown by almost 18% from 1993 to 1995. The city has two universities, Nottingham Trent and Nottingham University, and they play a major role in the local economy.

Brownfield ingenuity

Article Abstract:

The city government of Nottingham, England, has invested in infrastructure and the city's canal development will be a rival to that of the city of Birmingham. New office developments are being built in the south of the city and elsewhere. Rents are realistic, and continued expansion of the financial services sector will mean that available space will be used. The leisure sector is also performing well, and there are companies seeking space.
