Paint it some colour that will blend in and plant fast growing shrubs or
small trees around it that will hide it (if possible) or at least break up
the square lines so they will be less obvious. Stuff that actually covers
the box is not a good idea, somebody will need to get in there some day and
you may want them to do it quickly.

There are plastic rocks that might fit over it.

If you are wanting a natural look without planting anything, you may
find this very unique,functional as far as moveable, and very
inexpensive. http://wealthsmith.com/CAVEROCK.htm

Have you seen the fake boulders that you can buy and set over the top?
They're pretty cool, and look real.

The electricity people might need access to it at certain times..........
What about a trellis with something evergreen around the side(s) you see
from your window?
