I think the main reason is cost / time
How long would it take to make beautiful lamp posts, and what would it cost, if they had to be as detailed as back then, but produce the same amount of them as needed today?
Of course, with the rise of 3D printing and such, we may be able to return to it, without it increasing costs too much. I hope.
Personally im mostly tired of the lack of color. Everything these days is made in shades of grey. Metal, concrete and glass.
