They are edible cooked up with the right grown herbs though... 😼
“Boxing legend Mike Tyson has revealed he once broke up with a former girlfriend after she cooked and ate one of his pigeons in front of him. The 55-year-old is known for his love of the birds having cared for them since he was a child growing up in New York”

Don’t be like the girlfriend he dumped.
 
I love balconies but if it's not big enough to use as an outdoor room, it becomes borderline useless. One of the reasons I bought in my building was that the condo came with a usable balcony. I've got 21 plants out there, a table for 4 at one end, a table for 2 at the other end, and they'd still be room for another 8 people. And with solid concrete walls, you never feel like you're dangling off the side of the building. It's a proper outdoor room. In a city with a dearth of clean safe green space, living in a high-rise with a usable balcony is invaluable. I spend a couple hours out there every day, 7-8 months/year.

If they're going to bother building balconies, design them so they're usable space.

meh, it's personal. I'd personally prefer a balcony over "architectural design" but the people who bought in that building clearly think otherwise as they'd pick a different building if they needed a balcony.
I certainly love my balcony. Even just to get a few rays of sunshine.
 
From today. More rebar brought in, form work on level 51, and some work on the crane.
