| Below is a photo of Jackie Gleason, probably best known for his role as Ralph Kramden on the television series The Honeymooners. What borough did he call home during his childhood? |

I do believe the answer is our "wonderful" subway system - which thanks to current economics is facing serious cut back including reducing service and there is a threat some lines might disappear completely. |

| The Fulton Fish Market was once located at South Street Seaport in Manhattan. After 183 years at this location, it relocated to one of the other NYC boroughs. Name the borough which is now home to the Fulton Fish Market. |

| They moved? Must have been pretty recently because a few years ago we went shopping in the GAP and you could definitely tell they were still there by the powerful aroma.... | |

| Two part question:
The RMS Titanic sank on it's maiden voyage to New York City. At what pier # were they slated to dock? What pier did the survivors debark? | |

| Wow, either nobody knows the answer or everybody is busy working today. Ok, I'll give it a guess...
I believe it was Pier 59 that Titantic would have made berth, had she made it. And, I believe it was Pier 54 where Carpathia brought the survivors. |
