You can't just close (or delete) a buffer yet have have the window hang around because Vim no longer has anything to display in that window. A Vim window must contain some buffer. You could note the identity of the buffer (see ":help buffer-functions"), then replace the buffer with an empty buffer using ":enew", then delete the original buffer.
