Wabash Ave., and smashed into her head as she walked along the sidewalk, holding the hand of her 3-year- old daughter. • Consultants hired by CNA found that the building's glass could not withstand thermal stress, which occurs when a warm area of glass expands against a cooler area, creating pressure that can cause it to crack. • At least one study, performed after another pedestrian was hurt by falling glass in 1994, recommended the building's windows be replaced or reinforced with a restraint system that would hold cracked glass in place until it could be fixed. • CNA did not follow those recommendations.
