try going to freed up land and taking it out of storage (if storage is where it went to)
if that doesn’t work, use the free land token and then place it
just a thought, it is a big building
i didn’t have that happen but trying to help you
The open land has to be right beside where you are for it to not freeze, otherwise it searches your entire town for the next free spot.
hi nissa! been awhile to say hi to you
i was able to move the unplanted building around my main town but no land big enough to place it and had to use the token to place it
it does this too if you store a building to make a character free. When you pull the building out it instead of letting you place it where it was, it zooms you really far away then you have to find the spot it used to be which is very hard in my town.

When I log on, it shows that I have unlocked the museum and got free land. When I hit ok it freezes
This. I‘ve started a second town a week ago and it hasn’t free space enough to put the museum. The game logs in and you see the “Congrats! You’ve got museum blah-blah” and “Ok” button. No other options but to hit “ok”. After that it freezes. No way to add more land or put the museum in storage, because it is not “storagable” until the end of the event, as always, I suppose.
Ditto... however after playing so many years & being familiar w/ these type of glitches, patience & persistance is key; my solution was quitting & restarting my tablet... 3rd time was the charm
Yet another reason to have an Event zone and empty it out after the event.
People! You know we're always going to have new events as long as this game keeps going. You're going to have to have a place to put the stuff you get in the event - especially the event buildings that can't be stored.
So make an event area. Find a space and empty it out. Drop your event buildings (and other stuff) there.
You'll always know where the event buildings are and won't have to hunt for them. You won't have to hunt for some random spot to drop the event buildings, thereby wasting your precious playing time.
Your neighbors will also be better able to navigate your town since the entry point will always be the same for them.
