Idea: An electric car charging station consisting of dozens of 2-stall garages, where each car is charged indoors in privacy in it's own 2-stall garage. The car being charged is in one side of a garage, and "something to do" for around 40 minutes is in the other side of the garage. Examples of "stuff to do" include private movie theaters, barbers, dentists, Redbox movie rental machines, restaurant tables, hot tubs, etc. The "things to do" could be wheeled in on demand and ordered using a phone app. These 2-stall garage facilities could basically replace entire cities, and could slow down the transmission of the Coronavirus because they reduce or eliminate person-to-person contact, and they can be modified to implement virus protection measures more easily than normal stores/businesses (for example, an airproof plastic sheet could be placed between the customer's side of the garage and the business/service side of the garage). They could also help small businesses financially survive the Coronavirus because these businesses would no longer need a storefront or fixed location building which would require them to pay rent every month. Also, they could be a place for you to watch a sad movie where other people can't see you cry
