Beebe Plain Border Crossing, International border crossing in northeastern Vermont and southern Quebec.
The Beebe Plain Border Crossing is a passage between northeastern Vermont and southern Quebec featuring a brick structure with a covered entry area spanning the travel lane. The station includes five processing bays equipped with double and single sash windows for handling cross-border traffic.
The station was built in 1937 and is one of twelve border complexes constructed between 1931 and 1937 in the Georgian Revival style. This group of buildings reflects the standardized design approach used during the Great Depression era for international crossing facilities.
The border divides Canusa Street for roughly half a mile, separating American and Canadian residents who need official approval to visit each other. This physical split shapes daily life and how neighbors interact across the international line.
Both the American and Canadian border stations operate continuously throughout the week, processing regular traffic without specialized NEXUS or FAST programs. Visitors should expect possible waits during crossings and plan accordingly for processing times.
From 1864 until the early 1900s, an international post office with two separate doors operated at this site, serving both American and Canadian customers. This unusual setup allowed both countries to provide postal services without requiring travelers to formally cross the border.
