City of Glass is a book by Canadian author Douglas Coupland, published in 2000, featuring short essays and photographs of his home town of Vancouver, British Columbia. Each essay deals with a different aspect of the city, such as the glass condominium towers which dominate the Vancouver skyline and give the book its title. It also includes the short story My Hotel Year which appeared in Coupland's Life After God, and the essay on another Vancouver landmark, Lion's Gate Bridge, which was published in Polaroids From The Dead.
City of Glass is also the title of a 1985 novel by Paul Auster, the first book of his New York Trilogy.
City of Glass (玻璃之城) is a 1998 Hong Kong movie, directed by Mabel Cheung.
