Building Footprint Sizes
A quick list of buildings, their place-able upgrades, and the size of their footprints. For those want to make sure they can place future buildings down and those who like to plan out the placement of services and other buildings well ahead of when you unlock them!
Initial Notes
For those of you wanting to plan out your streets a tad bit better, this quick list of buildings should help you figure out how much space you need to leave to place the buildings you want!
Either go to each building section on the right, or use CTRL + F to search for a specific building. (Searching may only support English for now)
Each building, and place-able upgrade, will have a [width] x [depth]. Typically buildings will require road connections along its width. Place-able upgrades will also link to its parent building on the width side.
For example: If a building is shown as 10 x 5, the road may need to be 10 long to ensure all connections.

Closing
As more buildings are added, I shall try keep this up to date so people have an easy reference as they build their cities.
Please let me know, via comment, if anything is wrong, missing or could be improved! I may be doing some styling passes just so its not as text heavy as it is currently.
PS: Paradox, please just add this info to the building tooltips! Would be super handy for people who want to plan their districts and their building placements!
