NATIONAL BRIEFING / AND FINALLY . . .
TIMES WIRE REPORTS
Visitors to the top of the tallest building in North America soon won’t be able to avoid looking straight down.
The Sears Tower plans this summer to add four enclosed glass-bottomed balconies jutting out from the building’s 103rd-floor Skydeck -- offering a view of 1,353 feet down.
Each balcony will be able to hold about five tons and the glass will be half an inch thick.
