City layout to accommodate new workshops from Byzantine era
16 farms + 8 workshops while keeping many houses at a somewhat good culture level. It’s not perfect it always goes for 80% culture everywhere instead of overflowing with culture few buildings and wasting other resource.

Here is my layout for just entering Greece – everything is max except a few plots but those will also be maxed come the next culture upgrade. Hope it’s useful for someone!
I am aware domestic farms and medium houses aren’t the greatest – they’re only there for overnight purposes and to fill my need for symmetry so feel free to replace with rural/small homes and adjust!
