"Sunday Street" is a 1976 album by American folk and blues singer Dave Van Ronk.

"Sunday Street" is Van Ronk and his guitar only. He takes on some ragtime with favorites such as "The Pearls" and "Maple Leaf Rag" as well as a return to more traditional folk and blues.

Allmusic stated in their review "Van Ronk never hid his influences, but he never sounded exactly like them, either, and on this album he was very much himself. Maybe it is his greatest single album; it is certainly one of his most representative."

"Sunday Street" was re-released on CD in 1999.
