Hi,

I actually think the labels look nice the way they are now for
buildings.

There are probably a lot of other solutions, but for labels I've
created a sprite which contains all the labels I needed. Then I
created markers, supplying a MarkerImage with the specific location in
the sprite for my label. Those markers were then centered in the
middle of the polygon.

I hope that helps you somehow!
