What is the purpose of this ridiculously narrow fence?

As a home improvement installed sales representative for a then major department store in the 1970’s, this is the same ploy I used for selling aluminum siding.
Permanently install a sample example to the building or property then leave. The lucky home owner tires of looking at it and begs you to finish the job. Then I would go to the next door neighbor and explain before the first fence is being installed, how much they would save on bulding their own new fence, in both labor and material costs because “my team” was already there on site.
BTW, " Good fences make Good neighbors. "

I’m pretty sure it’s for hanging a gate.

Hmmm. The knobbly yellow assistive ground feature (not sure what the official term) doesn’t exist anywhere on Ft. Meade that I’m aware of. I turned on my microphone and said ‘enhance’, but wasn’t able to get a license plate in view. Still, I’m 100% sure we saw one of these over at DISA when they began construction over there in 2012.

I’ve heard them called “blind spots.” As in “for blind people.” Not sure how much assistance they provide in that regard though.

WOW~! That’s, amazing yet so inappropriate!

I broke down and checked Wikipedia: “Tactile paving (also called truncated domes, detectable warnings, Tactile Ground Surface Indicators, detectable warning surfaces)”
