There are several problems, but one is that raptors tend to well, fly off eventually.

There are currently three hawk families in Warsaw - one of them occupying a nest built specifically for this purpose which nevertheless was empty for five years before the new couple moved in.

The other is that raptors are very bad at dealing with cars. Their evolutionary strengths are seeing far and killing fast. Traffic? Not so much.

Rock doves and crows on the other hand deal with or even benefit from cars.
