As reported in the Brooklyn Paper, there is now a white painted ghost bicycle chained to a street sign on the corner of President Street and 8th Avenue near the site where Cobble Hill resident, Jonathan Millstein died in September.

Cycling activists locked a white-painted bicycle to a street sign at
the corner of Eighth Avenue and President Street in Park Slope on Dec.
2, turning the site of a fatal crash into a makeshift memorial.

Biking advocates from the New York City Street Memorial Project
installed a plaque and a “ghost bike” — adorned with plastic flowers —
on the corner where 50-year-old cyclist Jonathan Millstein lost his
life after colliding with an empty school bus on Sept. 10.
