| | Block City is the most unpopular battle course in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. While its supposed to be like its predessor, [[Block Fort]], it fails miserably. All it merely is, is a huge square with four block pillars and some edges. In each corner, there a whole slew of item boxes, making this course a little popular in [[Bob-Omb]] battles. |

| '''Block City''' is a battle course in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' It is rather simplistic, simply being a huge square with four block pillars (one of which includes a narrow shortcut with a double item box) and some edges; it is seemingly based on and named after [[Block Fort]] of ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. In each of this stage's corners, there are several [[Item Box]]es. It is the only default battle arena that is not symmetrical in any direction.

| Block City may be named after the poem of the same name from Robert Louis Stevenson's ''{{wp|A Child's Garden of Verses}}'', which similarly features a city made out of children's playthings.
