For the life of me I can't figure out the purpose of this type of concrete 'sign'....was it embedded in pavement?

Venturing a hypothesis that this concrete panel was emplaced within the surrounding property wall - ? at some point by city officialdom - and with the comment to any property owners to never paint over its surface if they happen to decide to apply a coat of paint to their stone walls. The Zahn family home stood at 427 So.Hope - wonder if ZN somehow was a designation /reference to their lot. BTW- am repeating my '05 BunkerHill slideshow (99 of 'em presented to me by Central LAPL) when I did a turn away crowd lunchtime event for Carolyn K.Cole. Will be at Larry Edmunds Bookshop @ 7 p.m. Sept 18th - Kudos to Jim Dawson for this ---
