California Institute of Technology—Chandler Dining Hall
This exciting institutional project for one of the Southland’s great universities
required a comprehensive re-thinking of college food service. TGA worked with Cal
Tech development staff, food service management, and world-class RiccaNewmark Design to produce this innovative and attractive student dining venue. In
addition to the substantial enlargement of the aging facility, technical challenges
included wholesale replacement of aging infrastructure, and an ambitious
construction timetable driven by the university’s educational schedule. In particular,
TGA excelled at meeting delivery deadlines, and providing nearly instantaneous
construction phase project support. Students and faculty now enjoy many dining
choices, in an elegant, restaurant-style facility in the center of campus.
