Urban Glass House is a condominium building designed by American architect Philip Johnson located in the Hudson Square neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.[2][3] Completed in 2006, it was Johnson's final project, as he did not live to see construction finished.[4] The building's name is a reference to Johnson's earlier Glass House, located in New Canaan, Connecticut, although the urban building bears little resemblance to the original.[5] The interiors were designed by Annabelle Selldorf, an American designer and architect.
The building saw a downturn in sales after the construction of a New York City Department of Sanitation garage across the street was announced in 2007.
