Plans to redevelop the site of one of the oldest established businesses in Southend town centre have been put forward.
The Five Minute Car Wash has been in Alexandra Street for more than 40 years. Now, it is moving to a new facility in Queensway.
Previously, plans for terraced housing at the rear of the Alexandra Street site have been given the green light by the council.
The latest scheme by Shout Properties would mean the ground floor of the building being converted into a shop.
At the rear of the site there would be a four-storey block of 18 flats and three three-storey terraced houses. Also in the scheme are amenity areas.
