Court Street is a former Rochester Industrial and Rapid Transit Railway station located in Rochester, New York. It was closed in 1956 along with the rest of the line.[1]

The remains of the station are located in a cutting that had once been the bed of the Erie Canal, immediately south of the mouth of the tunnel under Court Street on the west side of South Avenue. This site is adjacent to the historic Lehigh Valley Railroad Station building and south of the Rundel Memorial Library.
