And it was shot at F10.
On your 100% crop, was there an AF point on the building? If not, then I suspect the lens is actually sharper than shown here. At 100% the AF point needs to be on the enhanced subject and you need either a high SS or tripod damped by your body weight.

I DO occasionally use my 70-200mm for scenics, but it really shines for close ups of animals and as a portrait lens.
