An environmentally friendly fuel distribution station comprising:
- an upper canopy, said upper canopy including a fuel tank and an outer shell enclosing said fuel tank;
- a plurality of supporting columns supporting said upper canopy and said fuel tank;
- a fuel distribution interface suspended from said upper canopy, said fuel distribution interface selectively distributing fuel utilizing the force of gravity from said fuel tank during a fueling operation;
- and
- a convenience store suspended above the ground from at least one of the upper canopy and one or more of the plurality of supporting columns.
A method of constructing an environmentally friendly fuel distribution station, said method comprising:
- disposing a fuel tank in an outer shell forming an upper canopy;
- elevating said upper canopy with a support structure to an elevated position a predetermined distance above ground sufficient to allow for passage of vehicles beneath said upper canopy;
- suspending a fuel distribution interface downwardly from said canopy, said fuel distribution interface selectively pumping fuel utilizing the force of gravity from said fuel tank during a fueling operation;
- suspending a convenience store above the ground from at least one of the upper canopy and said support structure.
A fuel distribution station, comprising:
- an upper canopy;
- a plurality of supporting columns supporting said upper canopy in an elevated position a predetermined distance above ground so as to allow for passage of vehicles beneath said upper canopy;
- a fuel tank;
- a fuel dispensing system for selectively dispensing fuel from said fuel tank to said vehicles;
- and
- a convenience store adapted for the ingress and egress of persons, said convenience store being suspended above said ground from at least one of said upper canopy and one or more of said plurality of supporting columns.
