It reminds me of this park across the house I used to live in Guatemala city.
The park is square but it has a round roller skating track, and in the middle a public library and the statue of Columbus.
Look at me now, livining in the Big Apple

Not exactly, "manzana" means apple, and "manzana" also means block. Two blocks away means "a dos manzanas de aquí" You can also use the word "cuadra", "a dos cuadras de aquí".
When I said cuadra I mean "the 4 streets that make it", duh? Where I lived we didn't use the word manzana, instead we used cuadra. It's square right? cuadra, cuatro, etc does it ring a bell?

It is a block not around the corner.
With one block or manzana we mean the whole block (the 4 streets that make it) not just a "cuadra" as somebody mentioned before.

Apple does not have two meanings, the word "manzana" has various meanings and one is square, like public square and one would be the fruit.
