Ladder Street (Chinese: 樓梯街) is a street in the Central and Western District of Hong Kong, consisting entirely of steps and landings formed by granite slabs or concrete paving. It was so named because it extends straight up and down like a ladder. The street has been listed as a Grade I historic building.
