That wouldn't work as well, because if it's to the side (and side as in the left side if you are facing the gate) that is the operations set up area things and store certain cart things. Then if you mean towards the right, there is a building right there where Entertainment (including Scareactors for the streets) breaks.
Sorry to be a debbie downer for that idea, but I'm an Entertainment TM and know that back area very well.
