There are simply no good, truly long-term solutions to this problem that do not involve drastic changes to the building. The best solution would likely be to do something about the windows on the concave side of the building, putting some sort of external shade on them, changing the angle each window faces, or something to disrupt the normal magnification effect.
The correct solution is tearing down the monstrosity and building something that wasn't designed by an idiot in its place but that's likely too expensive to entertain at the moment.
