CONWAY — After years of being held up in court, there is finally tangible evidence that a Market Basket grocery store is going to be built in North Conway.
Trees are being felled and brush cleared on 6 acres off of Barnes Road, which is located south of Home Depot and north of Settlers Green outlet mall, whose owners are developing the site.

It will be so nice to be able to shop at a Market Basket right here in my town instead of having to travel to Rochester. There are a lot of unemployed people in this valley and I think it will give this community an economical boost.
😍 Looking forward to shopping there!
Thanks for the info:)
