Creative is good. The half priced library lets you put one in every city during the expansion phase. Thats a good science boost. Combine that with a half priced theatre before say 800AD and 1000 years later your cities will be putting out nice double culture in the 1800s or before. Finally, add a half priced colleseum to let your cites grow one more size in pop.
In my last game, I was going for a cultural win. One of my proposed legendaries was on the HRE border. By the end of the game, my culture from that city had taken half the tiles in the BFC from two HRE cities (this included resource tiles) and was even pressing right next to the Aachen the HRE capital. At any time, I could have moved troops right next to those cities and taken them on the first turn of a DoW. I think there is some unexplored territory for cultural agression right there.
