CONWAY — The Conway Planning Board is to resume full site-plan review at its meeting at the Marshall Gym Thursday evening on a plan to demolish the closed Junge’s Motel to construct a 22,808-square foot, three-story, 114-room hotel, a 5,800-square foot restaurant space and a 2,500-square foot building for a bank.
The site totals about 5.1 acres and is located just south of Pizza Hut and abuts Route 16 to the east and the tracks of the Conway Scenic Railroad to the west at 1858 White Mountain Highway.
