Does anyone have a good suggestion on how to tackle these pilasters and the brick detailing? Do I simply make several Stacked Wall profiles and assign them to their respective sections of the wall, or is there an easier way? Has anybody figured out a good way to put in that staggered brick detail at the top between the pilasters?

Revit's generic column will attach itself to the wall and assume the walls finish. Why not just use that? You could also do thin - brick wide walls at the pilasters ... that might be easier

i thought of that, but it doesn't clean up at the top of the wall. notice that the upper brick is stepping out and eventually becomes flush with the pilaster. if i use the column then the elevations have a seam in them where the pilaster and the brick meet

have you tried making a new wall-based family for your brick detailing? Then you can load it as a component and that way you can place them immediately below the pilaster in the spatial increment shown in the image. There will be a dividing line between the pilaster and the brick detailing, but if you are rendering it, it may seem more "together." Plus, since you will need to copy them a number of times, since Revit recognizes it as a main family - it shouldn't increase your file size as much as in-place families or other components.
