Several sentences don't make sense at all. In Italy, even in larger cities like MIlan, financial institutions are clustered in more than one district, as they congregate together in available sites AMONG the old city itself. Therefore there is no CENTRAL business district, it is not unique, and it can be everywhere in a city (certainly not at its very centre, as there are usually piazzas and other social spaces).

Also, its association with tall buildings is mainly an American concept. Skyscrapers in the City of London came way later than in North America. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.1.82.81 (talk) 11:40, 29 December 2013 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-29T11:40:00.000Z","author":"87.1.82.81","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-87.1.82.81-2013-12-29T11:40:00.000Z-About_Europe","replies":[]}}-->

I agree with what you wrote about Italy, but I disagree with your conclusion. The existence of a business district does not require that all the financial institution are located there, it is just a place that was designed to host financial institutions (as well as companies headquarters, national agencies, etc.) and does host a significant number of them -- not necessarily all. Besides, I think this is valid everywhere, not only for Italy.

OK for the rest

The point made is not that Johannesburg is the only city that has a multi-nuclei model but rather that it is a good example of one given its circumstances ( urban decay in original CBD due to apartheid ect) and it is certainly the most prominent example of one, if one drives to one of its busiest intersections there are 4 signs: Rosebank CBD, Sandton CBS, Randburg CBD, Johannnesburg CBD, all having their own management teams, financial institutions and once been separate from one another yet now all legally and geographically part of the same city fascinating indeed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DumaTorpedo (talk • contribs) 07:30, 11 March 2017 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-03-11T07:30:00.000Z","author":"DumaTorpedo","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-DumaTorpedo-2017-03-11T07:30:00.000Z-About_Europe","replies":[]}}-->
