Bird House Art Installations (Habitation Markers): The birds and birdhouse theme symbolizes many aspects of our community. Many bird species are drawn to our community by the mature trees; similarly, individuals and families from various backgrounds call Richmond Knob Hill home. The bird houses represent the diverse architecture within our community. Locating the art installations in multiple parks created a linking identifier.
