Kind of reminds me of the Crocker "Spite" fence, on Nob Hill in SF.

One of the big four millionaires in San Francisco build a spite fence around the undertaker who wouldn't sell the property to him for his mansion. The undertaker in turn build a giant coffin on the roof, visible over the spite fence.

Here's the fence, before the coffin: http://i.imgur.com/n1o7S3T.jpg
