She began her "Ninth Floor" project in late 2004 in Manhattan.^[8] A drug dealer noticed her camera, approached her on the street, and invited her to take photographs of him.^[4] He led Dimmock to a building in the Flatiron District, where Dimmock spent eight months photographing the approximately 30 heroin addicts who shared an apartment.^[3]^[4] In June 2005, the owners of the apartment evicted the addicts, but Dimmock continued to photograph two of the couples for more than two years after the eviction.^[3]^[9] The project was published as a video and as a book in 2007.^[10]^[11]
