I got dropped off in the parking lot, and naively walked around to the "front" to find the door to get in. Turns out the only way in was from the parking lot. I wonder if the door out front here will actually be used.
I definitely prefer it visually to a sea of parking out front like everything on Fairway, but it seems like there isn't a good answer if you accommodate driving to a business.
Before I moved to Kitchener, I was living in Richmond Hill. I would ride the bus down Yonge St. passing by a new Indigo bookstore that was under construction. For months, I wondered when it was going to open. Finally, I went there one day and tried to open the only door facing the street, which was locked. Finally, someone opened the door from the inside to inform me that I had to go round the back to get in. It is bizarre to build a retail store with no street facing entrance for pedestrians to enter.
