Clarence Street is a street in the Sydney central business district, Australia.

Originally named Middle Soldiers Row, it was renamed by Governor Macquarie in 1810 after the Duke of Clarence.^[1]^[2]^[3] The section between Bathurst Street and Sydney Town Hall was named St Andrews Place in 1914, this section has since disappeared.^[4]

Clarence Street runs south–north from Druitt Street to Jamison Street feeding traffic onto the Harbour Bridge.

A bus lane opened between Barrack Street and the Harbour Bridge in November 1989.^[5]

Notable buildings include the Grace Building, Clarence Street Police Station, Red Cross House and St Philip's Church.
