- List of main streets of New Zealand cities
The following is a list of the names of the main streets of
New Zealand 's cities, and of the larger towns in New Zealand known unofficially as cities (seeList of cities in New Zealand for explanation).

It is usually a focal point for shops and retailers in the city centre, and is most often used in reference to retailing."
