Question

I want to put a deck in my back yard; however, there is a bulkhead needs to be hidden by the deck or incorporated into the deck. Does anyone have an idea or have done this before?

Answer 1

You might brick it over, maybe even put in a brick BBQ while you are at it.

Answer 2

Hide it with a row of cannas, hydrangea, or forsynthia.

If you build over it, build in a trap door, just in case you ever need to access it.
