Little Queen Street, now erased, ran between Customs Street and Quay Street. Part of it can also be glimpsed in a 1927 Henry Winkelmann photo of the Harbour Board building in Quay Street.

Below, Little Queen Street can be seen running across the centre of an image of mine from February 1973, showing the building site that would become the Downtown Shopping Centre (itself subsequently demolished to make way for the current Commercial Bay development seen in the transition above).
