[[Image:Jackie Gleason Bus Depot.jpg|right|200px]]

On [[June 30]], [[1988]] the [[MTA New York City Transit buses|New York City Transit Authority's]] '''Fifth Avenue Bus Depot''' in [[Brooklyn]] was renamed for native [[Brooklynite]] [[Jackie Gleason]] who played the character of bus driver [[Ralph Kramden]] on [[The Honeymooners]]. Kramden worked for the fictional Gotham Bus Company. It is located on 5th Avenue & 39th Street in the neighborhood of [[Sunset Park]] in [[Brooklyn]], [[New York]], adjacent to the [[New York City Subway]]'s [[36th-38th Street Yard]]. The Jackie Gleason Depot is part of the [[MTA New York City Bus#Brooklyn Division|Brooklyn Division]] of bus depots in the [[MTA New York City Transit buses]].

Around [[1995]], the depot converted to [[compressed natural gas]] (CNG) operation. It is one of two CNG bus depots in the city (along with [[West Farms Depot]]) and the only all CNG bus depot in the city.
