Dauphin Street is a two-block thoroughfare that runs south from Line Street across Pine Street to end at Division Street, between South 4th Street and South 5th Street in South Camden.

The street was already in existence when the first Camden City Directory was published in 1863. Originally called Kaighn Street, Dauphin and 22 other streets were given new names in January of 1882.
