What do you suppose is the estimated size of a single block? I was thinking 2' square, because that's the size of a block I could stand on, however the door takes a single block width, and most doors are 3' wide. I would much rather the block to be an even number, because I'm trying to match the size of the block to a building plan. So...
2' square or 4' square?
One block is a cubic meter, or 1x1x1 m. The avatar is 1.7 m and fits in a two block space. Default creative maps are 128^3, 256^3, and 512^3, with sea level being in the center. 64 below, 64 above for the small one, 128 and 128 for the medium sized one, and 256 and 256 for the large one. Custom servers have even larger maps, though. I've seen maps as large as 4096x256x4096 (Islands of Kyth, for you older people who might still faintly remember it).

Much more detailed than my description.
I'm interested, how did you find the height of the man?

True, however, working in the IT field, any downtime is bad downtime.
Oh my. Extreme necropost.
You're going to want to avoid that in the future.
To answer your question, in classic the max is 128 for small maps, on singleplayer.
in beta it's 127, because Mojang removed the ability to build on the topmost layer.

Therefore, a block is approximately 'Half a meter'
I'm happy to help anytime.
Just PM me.
You heard that, green and red.
