The Teen Challenge Dining Hall is a single-storey, 6,500 square foot building located on the Teen Challenge Farm just outside London, ON. The structure is of structural steel framing and load bearing masonry all supported on conventional concrete footings. One of the building's most prominent features is its steel beams and frame, which create an open dining area and a full-height curtain wall on the west side of the building.
The curtain wall allows for a lot of natural light to enter the interior dining space while providing wide views of the surrounding green space and farmland. The steel frame and beams also give the building a modern and striking appearance, rising elegantly from the ground.
