Noyes, Minnesota

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Noyes, Minnesota is an unincorporated place in St. Vincent Township, Minnesota, USA. It is in the extreme northwestern corner of Minnesota. It has a history as an important border-crossing site. Here U.S. Route 75 and two rail lines (BNSF and Soo Line) enter Canada. However, U.S. 75 became much less important as I-29 was developed on the North Dakota side. The Canadians closed their customs house opposite Noyes (see Emerson, Manitoba) in 1999, and this eliminated most of the remaining traffic through Noyes. The duty-free store there had already closed. Noyes is close to being a ghost town.
