Jun 12, 2017 at 22:30 comment added jpmc26 Making up terms, I might call it a "drop-off," since the point of it appears to be to drop off a passenger. If context were already established, I suspect most people could understand me, even though the term is definitely not common usage or instantly recognizable.
Jun 12, 2017 at 2:28 comment added Phil Sweet Architects may well have another term for it, but covered entrance works for most of us. Pull-though is another option.
Jun 12, 2017 at 1:08 comment added Hot Licks I'm thinking that there's another term for this, at least in the US. Something along the lines of "carriage portico". (I see that "carriage porch" is suggested by the Wikipedia article for porte-cochère, a word that is not commonly used in the US, outside of architect's offices.)
