antenna mount location and interference

I've examined antenna mounting locations and suspect that the two possible locations might alter my antenna type. If I mount it on a gable vent at the back of my 2-story house/condo, then I'll be pointing directly at a nearby three-story neighboring condo (when aimed to pick up the Boston stations desired). The neighbor's condo wouldn't be all that much higher than the antenna height. Alternate location is a chimney along the side of the house in which case I'll be shooting through a couple of trees in adjacent yards.

Would this impact if I'm going the highly directional Yagi route or the somewhat square-ish bowtie antenna? Any idea which mounting location would be better? Thanks again!

Bill
