You're correct; it was.
Titanic was also the largest liner.
Things move on however.

It's true, I tell you.
Furthermore, did you know that Jesse Owens' World Record 100 m time of 10.20sec (June 20, 1936) has since been broken?
Took me by surprise, I can tell you.

Nope. It was before the Sears Tower was built. I was born and raised in Chicago so you have to know these things. Matter of fact, it was the tallest building in the world until the Petronas Towers were built, then the Taipei took over as the tallest in the world.

By the way, the first tallest building in Chicago was the John Hancock building. If you ever see a picture from the air it is the building closest to the lake (Lake Michigan) with two antennae.
