The Henry Ford II World Center, popularly known as the Glass House, is a 12-story, 200-foot (61 m) office tower in Dearborn, Michigan, United States. Completed in 1956, it is owned by the Ford Motor Company, and served as Ford's global headquarters from its opening until 2025. The facility was designed by Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill in the International style, with a glass facade, penthouse, and 950,000 square feet (88,000 m2) of floor space, supporting a staff of 2,000.
In November 2025, Ford relocated its headquarters to a new facility in Dearborn; the company is currently in the process of moving its employees to the new facility and vacating the Glass House. It is expected to be demolished in 2027.
