Not exactly going to be able to park the Prius or SmartCar there, are
they?

Well, maybe if they are average size, then they can just stop at the step
and carry the car up the steps into the garage. If they do it backwards,
then they can get a running start and fly off the top step every morning,
kind of a return to childhood.

It isn't necessarily a garage. We have a house near us with
three garage doors - two at ground level and one at second floor
level. One day I drove by when the top door was open. It is a
boat manufacturing site meant to blend in with the surrounding
houses. The top door is apparantly used to bring material in
and boats out with a lift.

It would make a nice loading dock to get the big iron into the shop.

Did a lot of work in San Francisco a few years back as a Cable Construction
Contractor. I saw more then a few of these examples there. Not sure if its
the ground settling or it was built this way. But I did have to look twice.
At the time these dwellings were going for more then 3/4 of million or more
dollars.
