The South Street Historic District is a historic district on South Street from Main Street to Warren Avenue in Brockton, Massachusetts. South Street was a fashionable residential address from about 1850 to 1915, and includes a cross-section of residential architectural styles, with the Colonial Revival predominating. The district includes two church buildings: the South Congregational Church, built in 1854 and demolished in the early 1990s to make way for a Walgreens pharmacy, and the South Street Methodist Church, an 1880 building which has been converted to residential use.[1]

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
