There is no given measure of meters in a city block.
The size of a city block has not been standardized by the likes of the ISO organization. There is no standard measure employed when designing new city blocks. The common denominator, if ever calculated, would be largely influenced by the ancient roads (as is width of the lanes) especially in such capitol cities as Rome, London and Madrid.
Since there is no standard definition, using a tool like Google Maps to roughly gauge the average length of blocks in a major city of interest may provide you with the information you are interested in.

Does one square block equal one acre?
An acre is 43560 square feet. This is a square parcel of land 208.71 feet on each side. A standard city block measurement was established at 6 city blocks = 1 kilometer. So 1 city block = 546.80665 feet. So an area approximately equal to 4 square acres = one square city block. This would be one half city block wide and one half city block long to approximately equal 209 feet wide and 209 feet long. This is approximate.
What is blocks walking in other words and what is it in miles and is it American?
A block is the distance from one road intersection to the next. It is not a fixed distance. This distance is often about 100 meters, but it may vary from one block to the next, and of course from one city to another. Brasilia, I have been told, has "superblocks" of about 500 meters each - 5 times the distance otherwise considered typical.Number of blocks walking is an American expression expressing distances in a city. Blocks do not have a set distance; however in New York City, the average length of a north-south block is 1/20th of a mile, or 264 feet. An east-west block is about 1/5th of a mile, or 1056 feet.
