6" gap on both sides not a very useful fence for them.
Can trench in aroot blockconcrete under your new fence and plant bamboo in the 6" you own on the other side for extra effect.
Do board on board, leave every board on board off... I promise you it would not bother me, but will bother the crap out of your neighbor...Broncos said:

I am about to replace my fence. It touches 6 neighbors. Gonna end up spending way too much time sorting that out.

This was done at my parents' old house - the entire fence turns into a den for mice, and, due to lack of sun/wind exposure to the inside to dry it out, the fence stays wet and rots prematurely.The Fife said:
I haven't done the suburbia thing in a while now and always wondered, why don't people just add pickets to the other side of the stringers so they get a "good" side too? Not worth their time/expense? Too many paper wasp nests get built in the gap between the sets of pickets?

My neighbors recognize the need for a new fence; but unfortunately, they don't have the money to share in the replacement costs. But since they're good people, they offered to do all the demo of the old fence. It'll take a lot more time than I'd prefer, but I'm gonna let them do it because I know they're proud people, and it'll help them feel like they're contributing (which they are).
