How can I set the zone like I want?
Suppose that I have 2 roads like those below and I want to zone ONE residential with an entrance (^) on east/west road ( the house is on a field of 3 squares)
+++...++++++++............................+++...++++++++^ +...+^ +...+^ +...+
But the computer does not let me build the way I want. It set 3 residential zones of one sqare each on north/south road instead.

How can I set the zone the way I want ?
Am not suppose to act like god ? :-)
Solution 1:
When zoning you can hold the following keys (or any combination) to adjust how it will configure the plots:
Shift: Temporarily disables automatic street placement
Alt: Rotates zone to face perpendicular road
Ctrl: Forces a specific plot size
It sounds like you would want to use the Alt key.
