Growing Vilangudi
Vilangudi’s housing is mostly newer independent houses and apartment buildings on the city’s north-western edge. Open plots bring birds and wind.
Balcony safety nets, roof nets and pigeon nets are the most useful fittings here.
Construction on neighbouring plots brings dust and loose birds into the area. A rinse every couple of weeks keeps nets clean, and stainless fittings mean nothing rusts after the monsoon rains. Families building now can plan grills and nets into the design rather than adding them later. The Dindigul road brings steady traffic, so homes right beside it see more dust than those set back on the newer streets.
