The Woodsville Opera Building is a historic commercial and performance building at 67 Central Street in Woodsville, New Hampshire, the commercial center of the town of Haverhill. The three story brick building occupies a prominent location in the business district; its most distinctive feature, a four story clock tower at the corner of Central and Court Streets, makes it a local landmark. It has Romanesque Revival and Panel Brick styling, and was built in 1890 by E. B. Mann and the Woodsville Opera Building Society. The building includes a performing venue that seats 600, and was for many years a center of civic life in the community, hosting high school graduations, proms, and other events.[2] Portions of the building have been converted to affordable housing.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
