When I lived in a Chicago neighborhood, I had a big wrought iron fence 
around the front of my lot, and used it as a counterpoise for a 160M Tee 
quasi-vertical (my 80/40 dipole fed with twin lead, both sides tied 
together and fed against that fence).  It worked.  Not as good as a good 
radial system, but much better than nothing.  There are still photos on 
my website if you poke around long enough.
