This is an import processing station for Customs. This is where all commercial trucks or vehicles coming into the US must be inspected and processed. They are usually filled with electronics and other items made in the factories in Tijuana. Frequently, large shipments of narcotics (marijuana, cocaine, metahampethamine, etc) and other prohibited items are intercepted here. You can compare it to West Cargo on the oter side of Otay Mesa POE and you can see by the flow of traffic the difference in the balance of trade between Mexico and the US.
