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 (see List of cities in New Zealand for explanation). In some cases, it is difficult to ascertain the single main street of a city - especially in the larger cities - and in these cases two or more main streets have been listed.
Main Street is defined as "... the primary retail street of a village, town, or small city in many parts of the world. It is usually a focal point for shops and retailers in the city centre, and is most often used in reference to retailing."

“Lord, how long?”
—Bible: Hebrew Isaiah, 6:11.
Asking how long will the chastisement of the people last. God replies, “Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, and the Lord have removed man far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.”
