I wish we could rotate our buildings, I think it would be helpful, as this is a city building game.

As Timon said in the live session on FB, I think rotation, just like storage, would remove a huge part of the challenge from the game.

There is a very good reason to not allow rotation: it is a core challenge in the game. When your buildings reach a certain level they do rotate, and players are forced to face that challenge and arrange their city in new ways.
For example:
Both planks take up the same number of squares, but if I want to upgrade from 19 to 20 they change direction, so I have to make adjustments to my city layout, and that's the point.
If I were allowed to just rotate it back, then 100% of the challenge that comes with upgrading would be gone.

Man I didn't realize you were new, honestly. All I saw was an alert pop up telling me someone had posted in one of the dozens of storage/rotation threads followed by a "once again it's a city building game" argument that I've read far too many times.
You've actually been one of the first posters to ever actually accept an explanation, so I'm impressed.
Not sure what you mean by this- where you place expansions won't effect your building orientation, just certain upgrade levels (it's different for each building)
BTW you might really like the website we use for city planning by @konniver (that's where I took the screenshot above)

I mean an sxpansion would give me the space to place my building where I want it, if I need more space than just get more provinces done..
I'm just saying,, that it depends on where u put ur expansion,, doesn't it? Ugghh!!!,, I'm so confused.

oh, yeah. If you time it right and get an expansion from exploring at the same time as you get one from the tech tree you'll have a nice 5x10 area that will help you re-arrange your city how you want it,and to plan for upcoming upgrades/orientation changes/size changes.

Just an fyi, rule #5 from the forum rules is fairly strictly enforced
5. Posting Protocol
- Avoid duplicate posts!
On these forums, "duplicate" refers to 2 posts in a row by the same player, not just 2 identical posts. The forum mods would rather have you edit your previous posts than make 2 or more in a row
Otherwise you get "infraction points" or something

We have a wonderful tool that allows folks to highlight and collect attributed SNIPPETS as they're reading ALL of the recent posts in a thread, and they can then organize the snippets and post a response that helps focus the discussion and GREATLY improves the readability of the forums.
The forum all too often turns into a food fight if folks are responding as they go, and are just hitting the reply button rather than highlighting snippets.
