glass facade:

A - Unitized curtain wall attached to outriggers (steel elements to connect glass facade to building structure = slab)

B - Existing structure (a steel structure)

C - Floor-to-ceiling reflective vision glass

D - Window sill extension

note the "dropped ceiling" consisting of wood elements obscuring the ceiling structure and mechanical system elements underneath.
