Earl Meech lived at Marina City from 1963 to 1972. He currently lives in San Antonio. These photographs were taken in the mid-1960s using 2¼” black-and-white film. They artistically show the living room, dining area, kitchen, and patio of Meech’s one-bedroom west tower unit (3511), as well as balcony views looking east, south, and west.
Earl is in the two images in the second row, with Patti Curran, a friend who was a professional model and sales representative for the photo studio at which Earl worked. Those images were created by Randel Aaron.
The large mirror measured four feet by six feet. It would later be destroyed by termites when Meech moved briefly to Costa Rica.
In two images, Richard J. Daley Plaza (completed in 1965) is still being constructed.
