This famous modern home designed by renowned architect Philip Johnson and nested off Ponus Ridge in New Canaan is opening as a museum under the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Johnson bequeathed the 45-acre property to the national trust in 1986 and lived in the Glass House until he died two years ago.
