Biography
Kevin Andrew Lynch was born in Illinois in 1918. He began his study of architecture at Yale Universityin 1935; then Taliesin (under Frank Lloyd Wright), 1937-1939 and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute,1939-1940. He earned a B.C.P. degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1947. He wasappointed instructor in city planning at MIT in 1948, assistant professor in 1949, associate professor in1955, and professor in 1963. Lynch retired from MIT in 1978 to found, with Stephen Carr, the designfirm Carr, Lynch and Associates.
Lynch consulted for many cities in the United States and abroad on projects including Boston'sGovernment Center and Waterfront Park, Detroit's Riverfront, major art institutions in Dallas, and urbandesign plans in Minneapolis, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego. Lynch's publications includeThe Image of the City (1960), which summarizes a five-year study he directed with Gyorgy Kepes on howpeople perceive their cities; What Time is This Place? (1972), which examines how time may be passedin cities, as well as urban conservation; and Growing Up in Cities (1977), which he edited and whichexplores how environments affect children.
Lynch influenced the field of city planning through his work on the theory of city form, and on theperception of the city environment and its consequences for city design. Kevin Lynch died in April 1984.

Historical note
In 1954 Kevin Lynch began a research project called The Perceptual Form of the City, a five year project
funded by The Rockefeller Foundation. The study was done under the direction of Lynch and Professor
Gyorgy Kepes at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Center for Urban and Regional Studies. The
research findings were published in 1960 in Lynch’s seminal work, The Image of the City.
The Perceptual Form of the City study addressed the legibility and imageability of the American city.
The study focused on the cities of Boston, Massachusetts; Los Angeles, California; and Jersey City, New
Jersey.
According to the 1955-1956 MIT Directory of Current Research, Perceptual Form of the City was an
“investigation directed toward development of a theoretical concept of city form. An attempt is being
made to supply the fundamental criteria and techniques for conceiving, expressing and controlling our
perceptual environment.”
In 1958-1959 the project is described as “an investigation of the individual’s perception of the urban
landscape. The inhabitant’s and the highway traveler’s image of the city, and the use of the signs and
symbols in the cityscape are of interest. The objective of this work is the development of new design
possibilities and principles for the city.”
In its final iteration the study comprised two main components. The first was a field trip made by a
trained observer, who mapped out the various elements of the city, which Lynch describes as nodes,
paths, edges, districts, and landmarks. The second component was office interviews with a sample of
residents from each city. Thirty interviews were conducted in Boston and fifteen in both Los Angeles
and Jersey City. The study was extended in Boston with sixteen of the original thirty interviewees
participating in an additional interview and field trip.

City.
Scope and content note
This series complements Kevin Lynch’s 1960 book The Image of the City. The material contained in this
series relates to Lynch’s study The Perceptual Form of the City, conducted at MIT with Gyorgy Kepes
from 1954 to 1960. The research done in this study was the foundation of his theories on city planning
discussed in the book.
The majority of the series can be categorized into two main groupings, records documenting the
planning, preparation, and progress of the project (1951-1956), and those that document the research
process and findings (1954-1959). These records include field notes, interview transcripts, collected data,
correspondence regarding the progress of the project and hand drawn maps. The remainder of the series
includes the original artwork and photographs published in The Image of the City.
The material in many of the folders in boxes 2 and 3 refer to an overlapping project Lynch conducted
with Malcolm Rivkin. The results of the project were published as “A Walk Around the Block,” in
Landscape, Spring 1959.
Research: The Perceptual Form of the City included field research in Boston, Massachusetts; Los
Angeles, California; and Jersey City, New Jersey. The majority of this collection relates to the Boston
phase of the project. Only three folders refer specifically to the Los Angeles and Jersey City portions of
the project.
Before beginning interviews in Boston, Lynch had his assistants survey the city and pilot test the
interview process. This initial survey served to map out the city being studied and to create the
vocabulary that Lynch and his associates would use throughout the project. Materials related to this
survey, and pilot tests completed by assistants David Crane and Richard Dober are located in the folder
“Field Analysis – Whole City.”
Book: In the margins of The Image of the City, Lynch included small graphics that served to illustrate
the concepts he was discussing in the accompanying paragraphs. This series contains these illustrations.
Also included in the series are the photographs and drawings printed in The Image of the City. Each
object includes its “figure number,” as assigned in the book, and the page number on which it can be
found.

This series contains “Reconsidering the Image of the City,” an essay written by Lynch for Cities of
the Mind: Images and themes of the city in the social sciences, edited by Lloyd Rodwin and Robert
Hollister. In this essay, Lynch reflects on research methodology used for the Perceptual Form of the City
project and the impact of The Image of the City 20 years after its publication.
