Fifth Street was a train station along the Evergreen Branch of the Long Island Rail Road that opened in 1878 at Fifth Street, which later became Driggs Street, then finally Driggs Avenue. Fifth Street was 3 minutes away from Greenpoint Terminal. The station closed in 1879. This is also evident as Fifth Street isn't mentioned on the 1880 season timetable.
