Zavikon Island refers to either the larger or the pair of islands in the Thousand Islands archipelago on the St. Lawrence River between New York and Ontario, two km southeast of Rockport, Ontario and about 200 meters north of the international boundary. As confirmed by various USGS and US Department of Defense maps, Zavikon Island is located in Canadian territory and belongs to the Leeds and Grenville municipal unit.
A popular but incorrect tale among local guides is that the larger island is in Canada, while "Little Zavikon Island" is in the United States, and the foot bridge between them is the "shortest international bridge in the world".

я думаю ответ может дать только хозяин - кому он property tax платит.
