The Camden Street Development Historic District is a historic district encompassing a cluster of municipally owned residential apartment blocks in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It consists of three nearly identical buildings centered on Shawmut Avenue between Camden Street and Brannon Harris Way. The blocks were built in 1949 by the city to provide housing to low-income African-American veterans, and have had only minimal alteration since then. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2022.
