The question is why not design it to need less maintenance & be accommodating to animal and plants.

Why some styles are chosen isn't just art but often also economy pushing what's profitable.

I was talking about pigeons & other nature, but I guess homeless people too.

Why not create places for them or at least modify the places they use to better suit them.

I'm don't mean this as a solution, just that its dickish to not think about environment that is being created.
