Dick Block is an historic commercial building located at North Tonawanda in Niagara County, New York. Built in 1891, it is a three-story, three-bay, red-brick building in the Romanesque Revival style. It features rounded windows and arches, rusticated stone detailing, and ornamental brickwork. The first-floor storefronts were modernized about 1946, when the building was occupied by the Witkop and Holmes Company furniture store.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.[1]
