It is an interesting point. When I was looking at my garage location, I was told that if you don't currently have a front driveway, and have an alley, you are not allowed to put a front drive in. You must use alley access for any new driveway/garage. I also was not allowed to make my front driveway any wider. It's possible these places got an exception to to the really steep grade on the alley. It would have made it very difficult to do.
