These are engineering questions that should be answered by one. Yes,
there are several things you can do to fit it into the space you've got (one
is to not put up all 150').
The Rohn catalog has a drawing of site land required for different
heights and anchor distances but it sounds like yours will be a custom (read
'engineered) design.
