In our area, the Costco stores are unique in having their entrance in the corner of the store. That means there are twice as many parking spots that are close to the entrance. I've always wondered why that model wasn't copied by other stores.
- lstamour 6y agoCostco is unique in that they require you to show a card for entry. Department stores commonly have more than one entrance on different sides of the building. Not every store models itself after a department store layout, though. I'll admit every time I enter a Costco from one corner, it does feel a little strange and crowded. But it's a smart idea, yes, given the constraints Costco has.
