I kinda would have expected them to make an actual botanical garden or something. I guess a park will have to do. And we have multi-functional lots now, I wish we could use them to design our own festivals.

I wish I could remember now who suggested this to me, so I could give credit, but... you can use the community lots from Eco Living very effectively to make seasonal festivals (like we had in TS3). There are four types of lots you can predecorate, and then when each season rolls around, you can simply have someone in the neighborhood vote for it, or use a cheat to instantly turn the lot to the appropriate seasonal festival.

If I recall correctly, I did them in order, left to right, as spring, summer, fall, and winter, and the mandatory objects for each sub-lot type fit the season pretty well. (With additional activities, of course.) If you want a different type of festival, with different recurring themes, I'm sure you could do that, too.

Mine is still a WIP, but I have really enjoyed having it... if anyone is interested, I can upload an example to the gallery.

ETA: I actually think this was @EmmaVane's idea originally, so she may have suggestions, too.
