O livro de Eric Doeringer se baseia no livro de Ed Ruscha publicado em 1965. Ruscha se inspirou na banalidade das imagens de anúncios de imóveis. Eric Doeringer visitou os mesmos lugares e fez novas fotografias utilizando o mesmo ponto de vista. A maioria dos prédios ainda estavam praticamente sem modificações. O formato do livro imita o layout original, mas substitui as fotos de Ruscha pelas fotografias de apartamentos feitas por Doeringer.
“Ed Ruscha’s 1965 book Some Los Angeles Apartments features photographs of apartment buildings in Los Angeles. Ruscha was inspired by the “artless” photography featured in real estate listings. For my version, I visited the locations Ruscha had photographed and took photographs from the same vantage points. Most of the buildings still exist, some with cosmetic alterations, others remain virtually unchanged. The book’s format mimics Ruscha’s, but substitutes my photographs of the apartments.” Eric Doeringer
