    		Yep...though I can't remember the name. It is either in Vermont or Maine, and has been chronicled on tv news programs, since the 9/11 immigration/terrorist thing has been so prominent. Apparently when someone in Canada (or the US) wishes to visit a neighbor across the street, they are legally required to go through customs first.

    		Here's some more examples including the humorous one about the opera house that is split by the border so that the audience is in one country and the stage is in the other, http://www.vismt.org/cfusion/cf2001/Community/ontheborder.html
