In April, WNYC asked it's listeners to submit photos of abandoned bikes in their neighborhoods, tagged with a geocode of the bike's location. Largely rusted and stripped of parts, chained to racks and sign posts, the project yielded more than 500 photos of bikes abandoned on the streets of New York City. See some of those bikes, donated by the Department of Sanitation and the youth service charity Recycle-A-Bicycle on display now along with a slide-show of the photos of abandoned bicycles submitted by listeners, curated by Transportation Nation, in the windows of the Jerome L. Greene Performance Space at WNYC/WQXR in downtown Manhattan through September 4th.
