Esplanade House, Southchurch
This is on the old gasworks site- opposite the site of the gasworks jetty - now demolished. I think this monstrous building was initially gas board offices, later credit card offices, now in the (slow) process of demolition.

Esplanade House
Demolition has begun after a seven year wait. Reported in the Southend Standard Saturday, 9 November 2013
A SEAFRONT eyesore could be demolished by next summer. Developers are hopeful Esplanade House, a half-collapsed office block in Eastern Esplanade, will be pulled down within nine months. The demolition of the building is a condition of Premier Inn’s promise to build a 62-bedroom budget hotel on the former gas works next door.
