@vortex_egg this toot is adorable.
Often if a neighborhood pre-dates cars being everywhere, but the weather still warrants them, you get little unattached garages. They're kind of tedious for cars, IMO, but they're better than parking on the street. Minneapolis usually has them lining the alleys.
@starless Interestingly when I lived in Dubuque, Iowa, in what they call the Eagle Point district (the part of town that has houses built before WWII, on the NE flats near the Mississippi River) carports (basically roofs over pavement and attached to the house) are more common. I'd never seen so many before, and seen very few since I've lived in Tarentum (20 miles NE of Pittsburgh) and then here in Champaign, Illinois. @vortex_egg
