Question: What year was the Johnson house built? 
Context: The Glass House or Johnson house, is a historic house museum on Ponus Ridge Road in New Canaan, Connecticut.  Built in 1949, it was designed by Philip Johnson as his own residence, and "universally viewed as having been derived from" the Farnsworth House design, according to Alice T. Friedman.
