The Kepes-Lynch project is comprised of documentation created by Kevin Lynch and Gyorgy Kepes in preparation for the book "The Image of the City". The photographs that Kevin Lynch and Gyorgy Kepes took of the streets of the city of Boston in the 1960s, along with the field notes taken while doing the project document the process they used to gather information from people on the street about their impressions of city streets and the environment the streets create. The photographs illustrate people in the environment at a particular time; the field notes document the process of the project.
