I've once read that, along with its many uses, "por" can be used to express "by", "along", and "through". - Goldie_Miel, Feb 9, 2011

Por --> Normally, the preposition by is translated as por. I passed by or stopped by the store.

Pasé para la tienda has a totally different connotation. Pasé a la empleada para la tienda. I transferred the employee to the store.
