"At the time it was built, the 12-story hotel was one of the tallest buildings in the world."

That reminds me of a joke my father told. Three restaurants in a row. First one advertised, "Best Food in All of America". Second one advertised, "Best Food in the World." Third one advertised, "Best Food on This Street."

There was ( maybe not any more ) a restaurant in New Orleans on the east bank of the river that had a sign "Best food west of the Mississippi."
