That's ugly and scary, use this instead
That looks like it supports a few dozen people, maybe?
Not sure if it's the residential part
Or how about this?
bugs. bugs everywhere. damage from roots. watering nightmare.
I don't think any more bugs than an average suburban neighborhood. If you look closely, it's a lot less dense than it appears, although even people who live in rural areas don't have some super insect problem. Damage from roots can be mitigated by using the proper construction materials. You don't have to water anything. It's outside.
I grew up in Jamaica. If that image comes with the eradication of mosquitoes, I'd be more open to the idea! Even the sturdiest materials, proper drainage, and regular pruning would eventually see erosion issues and excessive maintenance requirements. But I'm certainly not an engineer that could solve for all the long term concerns.
