The Centre and Montello Streets Historic District encompasses an area of well-preserved commercial buildings in Brockton, Massachusetts. The district extends west along Centre Street from the junction of Centre and Montello Streets in downtown Brockton, and includes a few buildings on Montello south of that intersection. The buildings are typically four story brick buildings, with commercial styling characteristic of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.[2] The Lily, Brackett & Co. Shoe Factory at 124-126 Montello Street is believed to be the oldest brick shoe factory building in the city.[3]

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
