A connector strip is disclosed for assembling a building wall of glass blocks. The strip includes a longitudinal center section having a pair of oppositely disposed and longitudinally extending grooves dimensioned to receive a centrally located ridge extending peripherally around the outer edge surfaces of a molded building block to which the strip is to be mounted. A flange projects laterally outwardly from each longitudinal edge of the center section. The flanges have outwardly profecting walls and a plurality of laterally extending ribs which project outwardly from the walls. The flanges, walls and ribs define a plurality of open compartments on opposite sides of the flanges. Resiliently compressible material is mounted to the center section which engages with the outer edge surface of the building block to which the strip is to be mounted. A fastener member also is provided for coupling together adjacently positioned connector strips to form a rigid framework for assembling successive rows of blocks into a wall assembly.
