Impressive American building (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rotunda

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'impressive american' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'building' is the second definition.
(rotunda is a kind of building)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rotunda that I've seen before include "Round domed building" , "Round domed room" , "Do a turn (anag) -- circular domed building" , "Round building or hall" , "Circular room or building" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
