WAREHOUSE DISTRICT. A must-see stop in Toledo, a city that is known as "The Glass Capital of the World," is the Libbey Glass Factory Outlet. Upon entering, you'll see a small display to the left that chronicles the history of this company. In 1870, William L. Libbey joined the New England Glass Company, which was founded in 1818. When, in 1888, the company moved its operation to Toledo, they renamed it the "Libbey Glass Company." Libbey had worked in glass plants since he was 10 years old, and even developed the first automatic glass-making machine. Today, Libbey is the leading producer for glass tableware and ceramic dinnerware for the North American food service industry, and it exports glass products to 100 countries. It was also the cornerstone for some of the other leading producers of glass products in the world such as Owens-Illinois and Owens-Corning.
