About

Domino's Farms

Domino's Farms is an office park in Ann Arbor Charter Township, Michigan, centered around a four-story, 1⁄2-mile-long (0.80 km), Prairie style groundscraper known as the "Prairie House". Domino's Pizza founder Tom Monaghan commissioned the complex in the early 1980s to serve as the company's headquarters, and Monaghan remains the owner of the complex after selling his stake in Domino's in 1998. The complex was designed by Gunnar Birkerts in the style of Frank Lloyd Wright, whom Monaghan admired.

Construction began in 1984, and the sixth and final phase of the Prairie House was fully completed in 2005. Michigan Medicine is a major tenant of the complex, which also includes test kitchens for Domino's and a petting zoo.
