Description and history. The Bolduc Block stands  in the historic town center of Conway, on the north side of Main Street (New Hampshire Routes 16 and 113), west of its junction with Washington and Pleasant streets. It is a single-story structure, its exterior finished in brick. The front is defined by a projecting marquee over the main theater entrance on the left side, a series of storefronts to its right, and an Art Deco stepped parapet above. The interior, damaged by fire in 2005 and restored, retains some original features, including cast iron radiators and light fixtures. The block was built in 1923, replacing several smaller  commercial buildings that had been destroyed by fire. Its theater was at first known as the "New Conway Theatre", but was formally opened as the Majestic Theater in 1931. The storefronts have over the years housed a number of businesses, as well as the local post office for a time. It was restored after the 2005 fire extensively damaged its interior spaces. The building has been acquired by the Mountain Top Music School, a local music education and performance organization, with the intent (as of early 2017) of reopening it as a performance venue.
