AdminHistoryKirkon Business Centre occupied what had been, from 1965, the Development Corporation's offices on Kirk Lane in Livingston Village. In 1983 it was decided that the offices no longer met health and safety standards. The Corporation moved to new accommodation in Sidlaw House whilst the office block on Kirk Lane was sold to McGregor Developments and leased back to the Corporation for a thirty five year period. The Corporation in turn, leased out the small suites as office space. McGregor holdings disposed of their ownership of the building to another company in 1993.
