The Orient–Fosterville Border Crossing is an international border crossing between the towns of Orient, Maine, United States and Fosterville, New Brunswick, Canada on the Canada–US border. At this crossing, the United States is still operating the original border station built in 1937, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. Canada built its current border station in 1986. This section of the border is a series of lakes and streams that supply the St Croix River. The original bridge connecting Orient with Fosterville was said to be the shortest international bridge between the US and Canada.
