Window terminology[edit]

Glass brick (pavement window) in Burlington House, London

Question: what is the exact term for this sort of 'window'? Thanks! Etan J. Tal^(talk) 09:27, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pavement light seems to be a fairly standard name for these - e.g. see this company. Of course this probably wouldn't apply in the US, where pavement doesn't mean the same as in the UK. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 09:44, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The most common U.S. term seems to be sidewalk skylight. Marco polo (talk) 19:58, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Never saw one in the US, presumably because:

1) Open areas under sidewalks aren't common here.

2) It would tend to leak.

3) It would pose a trip hazard.

4) It would tend to accumulate dirt from passing shoes.

5) Might crack. StuRat (talk) 17:59, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
