The Haskell Free Library and Opera House sits right on the US–Canada border, between Derby Line, Vermont and Stanstead, Quebec. Built in 1904 on purpose so both towns could share it, it has a black line on the floor marking the border. The front door is in the US, most of the books are in Canada, and in the opera house the stage is in Canada while most of the audience sits in the US.
