Glass reportedly falls from Transamerica Pyramid

SAN FRANCISCO ( KRON ) — A windowpane on the Transamerica Pyramid shattered on Thursday night, reportedly sending glass raining down onto the sidewalk and street below. A spokesperson for the iconic property’s owners, SHVO, told KRON4.com that the glass was damaged during a routine cleaning.

According to a post on Reddit , shards of glass fell from the building at around 6:45 p.m. No one was injured in the incident, according to the property owner, and an on-site team responded quickly.

The San Francisco Department of Building Inspection told KRON4.com it wasn’t alerted to the event until Friday morning. The department dispatched a building inspector to the site to evaluate the situation. The inspector issued a Damaged Building Notice, which required the property owner to secure the opening where the glass fell or was broken, and to replace it as soon as possible.

Recently, the revitalization of the Transamerica Pyramid was completed following a billion-dollar renovation.
