Savings Bank Block is an historic site at 215 Lisbon Street in Lewiston, Maine.

Construction on the block was begun in 1868 and completed in 1870. Built as the home of the Lewiston Institution for Savings, it may have been designed by local architect William H. Stevens, who was closely associated with the bank's officers.[2] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
