Probably no problem since the

Hmm.  I can see how the 1x1 technic beam works at one end of the wall of
windows, but I wonder how to use this 1x1 technic beam at the other end of
the wall of windows?

Forgot about that part. John G knows, though.

Huh?  What do I know??

Which end are we talking about - the 'top' of the windows or the 'bottom'?
For the bottom use Larry's favorite piece - the Technic 1.2 peg (or whatever
it's called).  For the 'top', use the same technique, but in reverse - use a
1x1 tile and a 1x1 plate on 'top' of the windows.  The plate will fit into the
1x1 technic brick, the tile will just fill the space above (or below) it...

(...) That it is! Love that piece! (...) Yes, and with the "bottom" having two attachment points, (1.2 and 1x1 w/side stud turned sideways) the top having only one should still be plenty to keep the windows securely held. (24 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) What you want is studs arranged vertically that are the proper spacing apart. I think that the technic on the bottom and the 1x1 with side stud on top (turned sideways) will give you the proper spacing. Haven't checked. (...) Forgot about that (...)
