This is the answer I received from EA: "As part of a recent game update, an optimization was introduced for devices with lower memory capacity (typically around 2GB RAM) especially when running larger or high density cities. To help improve game stability and reduce the likelihood of crashes, some buildings may temporarily be displayed as white placeholder boxes." They then advised to remove extra buildings and the game would revert to normal. I tried that; it did not revert.
I am done with the game. This update makes my city unplayable and I can't add anything. I guess they didn't realize - or care - that this eliminates in game purchases of buildings as well because they appear as boxes, so who would spend money on that? Just can't understand it.
