Is it practical to consider trying to salvage a 7.5' x 7' x 3/16" pane of window glass which was originally installed in 1955? It is not tempered glass. I know how to release the glass from the steel frame. Does glass 'age' and become more brittle and difficult to handle with time? Would a professional glazier consider moving a piece this size between 2 houses ~100' apart? Would the cost of the glass, purchased new, be significant? To me it seems a shame to have the glass I envision moving end up in the dump. My late neighbor's house is soon to be demolished.
Thanks,
Baumgrenze
