building location in central urban area
"within 10km in radius from" can replace the "in" if you like.
My point is that 立地 regards to building site or location,
as in 立地条件 etc.
As for 直下, it often refers to earthquakes. It conotates something attacking the core part of a place. So 直下型simply means the core or central part.

locations within 10 km radius from central Tokyo
According to my understanding, the above source text means a location which is within 10km radius from the most populated area with over 400,000 people which is suited for doing business in the city center.

| It says, ※都心の直下型立地は中心街から10㎞圏, though, so I can't just describe it. I need a name for it. |
