Central City Shopping Centre (formerly known as Surrey Place Mall) is a shopping mall and office tower complex in Whalley/City Centre, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, which is owned by Blackwood Partners Management Corporation. It is near Surrey Central and King George SkyTrain stations. It was designed by Bing Thom Architects.

It is the second largest mall in Surrey, smaller than Guildford Town Centre. The mall was constructed in the 1960s.

The construction of the Port Mann Bridge and Guildford Town Centre began to challenge the mall's position as a dominant shopping centre. By the 1990s the downfall became great and the mall had lost a lot of its foot traffic and stores became untenanted. In the recent years, the mall has been affected by the closings of Target Canada and Future Shop, but Walmart Canada took over the Target Canada's location in the shopping centre and Best Buy took over Future Shop.
