A “block” refers to a specific area of land that is bounded by streets on all sides. It is typically a section of a city, town, or subdivision that is divided into smaller lots, which can be sold or developed individually. Each block is part of a larger grid of streets that make up the layout of a neighborhood or urban area. Blocks are often used as a unit of measurement in real estate and urban planning to describe the location or distance of a property relative to other landmarks, amenities, or properties.
