Role in the city
Parks, sports, and spiritual buildings raise happiness or land value around active districts.
Placement advice
Place them inside or beside developed residential blocks. Empty-edge placement looks tidy but wastes the effect radius.
When to build or upgrade
Build once utilities are stable and before expensive service upgrades, so the district turns into a stronger tax base.
