Firstly I went to move one of my Gambling specializations which had a population of 10,000 I moved it and decided to put it back but then went down to 2,000, the building was facing the same direction and in the same place. I moved another building to see if the population would change and it did, I’m thinking this is most likely a bug has anyone else had the same problem ?
Hi @jakash284 - You completely moved the building from one spot to another, right? When you move a specialty building, the population surrounding it will move out of the area. I think moving it back would be like placing it in the area for the first time. So it will boost the population again, you probably just need to give the sims some time to move back in.

To move – Tap and hold the specialization building you’d like to move, drag it to a different spot, and tap the green checkmark if you’re satisfied with the new placement. Watch the effects on the surrounding residential zones as you move the building; if you’re moving the good stuff away from your citizens they’ll move away too! And wherever you place the
specialization building, remember to have a road next to it so it can still keep your city busy.
If I misunderstood, please let us know. I'm sure there are mayors who can help you with the issue.
It's what Penakyna said....
The total specialisation boost will have been replaced by other Gambling buildings when you moved it, when you moved it back it will have provided the "top up" boost it could over and above the buildings already there... total population is the best measure, not per building boost.
There is no need to wait for sims to move back in, it is instant.
