Is a garage without a door considered a carport?

A porte-cochere is a structure attached to a building adjacent to an entrance. This "coach gate" provides a cover beneath which those arriving or departing may step off or get aboard a carriage or other transportation. The covered area allows individuals to step off a coach and go inside without being exposed to precipitation. It might be possible to "park" a coach in it, but it is not a garage. The garage is actually a designated storage area for a vehicle, and it is enclosed. (A covered structure for vehicle storage that is partly enclosed is a carport.) The coach gate (carriage porch) has two open sides so a coach or vehicle can come in through one and exit through the other by driving straight through. It really does not qualify as a garage.
