Changing buildings in draenor zones

Is it possible to change the buildings you previously built? Like the Mage tower, and Wrynn artillery tower, if you chose to build the Mage tower, can you change it to the artillery tower?
Yes its possible to change buildings, it only costs resources to do it,

so doing it a lot costs more resources, and isn't practical, but you could change buildings all the time.

You can also swap the positions of buildings that already exist for absolutely free.
I think he means the garrison outposts like in gorgrond , talador, etc. In which case I havnt personally tried myself but I heard you can but it costs a lot of gold.

Yes, i did not state in my post how to change buildings built in your garrison, which i already know is 100% possible. The garrison outposts built in the draenor zones, where would you pay the gold if it is possible to change up those buildings?
It costs 10k gold to change the building in your outposts. It's not cheap.
That's not bad. It's a fair price given they give us the ability to change it. Now just to find which NPC has the option to change the building...

Oh wow, you can change those buildings?

Thank goodness! Now the Tank is only a 10,000g mistake, and not a permanent Hot Carl on our chests.

If I remember right, I believe it's the "Commander" or whoever the In charge NPC of that outpost is.

think this is a bit mean of Blizzard... original building of your garrison(s) is a learning curve.. not quite sure whats going on, mistakes are made.. I have 4 alts and my main frost mage , 2 other mages (fire and arcane), a druid, and a hunter.. NOW I know how it works and whats going on and which buildings I should have chosen, (luckily only the druid and my main have garrisons so far.. both with some wrong bulding choices, seems only fair that you should be able to have at least ONE chance to reset your garrsin free or even with 1k costs along with building materials maybe) which takes ages to get anyway.., AND THEN the 10k gold skewer in the heart afterwards.. I never get that much cash with any of my main or alts.. hence its unfair
It's not unfair, it's a Gold Sink.

There is nothing stopping you from Alt+Tab-ing out of the game, opening a browser and seeing which outposts reward what followers, vendors and zone perks before you decide on your outpost.

There are hundreds of guides for making gold from Garrisons, the most common being get Treasure Hunter followers, a level 3 Inn and get them to 675 asap. But you can do pretty well from the Trading Post as well if you let your resources build up.
I don't have a problem with charging gold to change your buildings. I will say that I think you should be able to change once for a significantly less amount of gold - the cost seems brutally excessive even with the now reduced amount (5k gold). The one thing I find completely unethical of Blizzard is that flying requires you choose a specific building. One of the required quests for the Draenor Loremaster ach is that you complete a specific quest in Talador that is only available if you have the arsenal. I had absolutely no idea of this and chose the opposite building. Now I want to fly and Blizz is gonna make me pay an outrageous amount of gold to change it?! That's ridiculous! Obtaining the requirements for flying shouldn't be dependent upon which building I chose. If Blizz is going to make it that way then they should disclose that at the time of choosing the building! Frustrated as hell right now!
only costs 5k now. (Hi 2015!)

It’s now down to 500 gold.

Holy multi-necro Batman!
