Suggestions on being theft proof:)

So I built this Schwinn up for my brother who lives in lower Manhattan which is much quieter and I would say safer than the hustle and bustle of most of the city. This bike is being used for going grocery shopping and other errands in the city. He will be locking it up outside and keeping it there overnight close to his building. I know that no bike is theft proof but what kinds of things should we consider to make it less desirable for someone to steal it or take parts from it? The panniers are easy to come on and off so they will go up to his apt when being locked up. So far we have a Kyrponite Ulock which will be latched to frame/rear wheel and pole. Here are some pics of the bike. Hopefully the note will act as a deterrent
