Greymouth Central is the central business district of Greymouth on the West Coast of New Zealand, which also contains residential housing.

The earliest street names honour pioneer residents, explorers and prominent local Māori, while others pay tribute to English literary figures and politicians. Later developments recognise the achievements of local residents who contributed significantly to civic and local body affairs.[3]
