Park Place was a terminal of the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad (H&M) located at the intersection of Park Place and Center Street in Newark, New Jersey, across the street from Military Park. The terminal opened on November 26, 1911, after the H&M extended its line westward from Grove Street in Jersey City to Summit Avenue, Manhattan Transfer, and Newark. The terminal closed on June 20, 1937, after the H&M tracks were realigned to serve the new Newark Penn Station.

The H&M was taken over by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in 1962, the system becoming Port Authority Trans-Hudson, known as PATH. The New Jersey Performing Arts Center is sited on the location of the terminal adjacent to Newark Light Rail's NJPAC/Center Street Station.
