The Philip Johnson Glass House in New Canaan is an Architectural Marvel at Any Time of Year.

The Glass House is a beautiful piece of mid-twentieth-century architecture by a master of the craft Philip Johnson. The idea was conceived as half of a two-part project, with the other being the Brick House a few hundred yards away. Philip Johnson lived in the property throughout the second half of his life from 1949 until 2005. The property has since been taken over by a non-profit that runs tours throughout the year. The Glass House tours range from an hour to over three hours with some bookings, including tours of the surrounding art gallery, where guests can view the Rothko Chapel. Private and self-guided tours are available depending on bookings.

• The popularity of the Glass House means you usually have to book tickets in advance.
• The property is situated among 49 acres, which guests can tour freely.
• Tours begin from the visitor center, where guests can jump on a shuttle bus into the main attraction.

Property fires can occur at any time of year and cause sufficient harm to your property to justify professional assistance. Contact SERVPRO of Darien / New Canaan at (203) 966-6264.
