Rowe Street is an abandoned train station in the town of Bloomfield, New Jersey. The station was a former stop on the Boonton Line, which runs from Hoboken Terminal to Hackettstown, reaching Rowe Street in Bloomfield. Rowe Street station was known before 1955 as Orchard Street station. The platforms lie in the block between the two streets. The rename has been linked to the elimination of the nearby Bloomfield Walnut Street station two years earlier when the Garden State Parkway was constructed through the site of that station. Rowe Street was a two platform, two track station, with a one-story brick station house.

Service was discontinued to Rowe Street Station (along with Benson Street in Glen Ridge and Arlington in Kearny) in 2002 when the Montclair Connection was opened.
