One possibility is to use a Morph for the wall cap (all of the brick portion) and then have a river rock textured wall below trimmed by the cap... with a separate bit of wall that is textured with brick at the driveway as shown for the end condition.

 

To get the three materials that I see, the wall cap would have 3 different fills extruded for the Morph to get the 3 different brick textures assigned to the extrusion.  I found this YouTube tutorial for how to extrude a Morph profile along a 3D path to get the curves shown in your image:

Thank you. I found the same video very late last night and thought that must be possible  to do so.
