CONWAY — A formal groundbreaking ceremony won’t be held until the end of the month, but site work has begun on the planned expansion of the North Conway Public Library
The 6,600-square-foot addition to the building at the corner of Main and Mechanic Streets in North Conway Village will nearly double the size of the existing building at 2719 White Mountain Highway.
