CONWAY — The 59-year-old North Conway Fire Station was demolished Monday to make way for the new $6.7 million station that North Conway Water Precinct voters approved at the precinct's annual meeting last month by a vote of 45-3.
Project Superintendent Robert Silva of Ricci Construction of Portsmouth said Monday, "We are very proud to be a part of this project. It's going to be steel, brick and granite, and it will be a very beautiful building in what is a beautiful town."
