The Second Callahan Block is an historic building at 282 Lisbon Street in Lewiston, Maine. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

The building was commissioned by Timothy F. and Eugene A. Callahan, dealers in men's accessories. Prior to the construction of this building, the Callahan brothers had built the neighboring Callahan Building in 1892. The 1892 building had been designed by George M. Coombs, and the new building was designed by his office, Coombs & Gibbs, now led by his son Harry S. Coombs.[2]

The scale, materials, and style of the building is considered to be consistent with other commercial buildings on Lisbon Street.[2]
