Massive dining commons at SFU Burnaby campus to open in new school year

Known as the Dining Commons, the expansion replaces an area north of the existing dining hall that was previously used as surface parking. It is located at the western terminus of the campus spine, which is also the eastern end of the student housing cluster.

Angela Wilson, the senior director of media relations and public affairs for SFU, told Daily Hive Urbanized this is a 30,000 sq ft addition, which roughly triples the size of the existing dining facility — increasing its seated capacity from 300 to 800 students, including a mezzanine level overlooking the entire two-storey space, and a patio.
