How To Ruin A Seafront

The grey concrete monstrosity in the middle is the Holiday Inn built in the mid 1960s on the site of Bedford Hotel, then considered better than the Grand and Metropole. It certainly would not look out of place in a 1980s Communist city. The white building behind is Sussex Towers which although built at the same time making it white at least enables it to blend in with its surroundings.
