It is not possible to answer this question because it is too imprecise. City blocks are not all the same size. Furthermore, the time taken to go along one depends on the mode of transport: on foot, on a cycle, or motorised transport.

The size of a city block is NOT a standard size- it varies from city to city, and even within a city. Typically one city block is larger than one acre. An acre is 43,560 sq, ft- or ABOUT 209 ft by 209 ft.
How many acres in One Chicago City Block ?It depends on the city. 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 1,056 feet.So, a square block would be 264 x 1056 = 278,784 square feet, which is equal to 6.4 acres.Chicago city blocks (if you count each block as 100 in the grid addressing system) are 1/8 mile long so a square mile is 8 blocks x 8 blocks. Since there are 64 square blocks in one square mile and 640 acres in one square mile, we know that Chicago city blocks (e.g. from Ashland to Paulina and Addison to Waveland) would be equal to exactly 10 acres per square block.
A city block is simply the distance from one intersection (or street light) to the next and can vary in distance depending on the city.
