carports
Roofed parking spaces
A carport is a roofed structure for sheltering a vehicle, open on at least one side—essentially a garage without walls.
Carports attach to houses or stand alone, providing basic protection from sun and rain without the expense or enclosure of a full garage: We park under the carport when it's hot.
