That's one of a coupl'a things I hate about ours. A three car garage
dominates the elevation. The front door is almost an afterthought off to
the side.

I grew up with garages in the back.
I guess most folks think it a security hazard, but I sure wish mine was
around back.

Come$ down to $$$ in many cases. Putting the garage in back or even on the
side requires more paving, maybe even more land for the driveway. Three
and four care homes are fairly common these days also. I'm glad I left the
city many years ago because parking is a nightmare in many areas.
