Modern Deco
A fine example of a modern apartment block in Art Deco style, this building can be found on the far northern end of the esplanade in Frinton-on-Sea. The apartments are large - there's only eight.
Seen in glorious sunshine on New Year's Eve, the image does not give any sense of the sharp wind blowing in from the North Sea...
Although it appears to be an 1930s building, it is not! It appeared recently - GoogleEarth's imagery is a bit limited for Frinton but shows it apparently completed on 31 Dec 2009, but a completely different building is on the site in the next-earliest imagery of 6 Nov 2006...
The architects were Tim Snow Architects Ltd and the chartered building surveyors Shore Engineering list it as one of their projects.
