The glass dining hall was built by W.W. Durant in the late 1800's and was relocated in the twentieth century.  The purpose of the glass dining hall was to serve Durants upper-class societal friends.  The room was set up elegantly with only the best and finest of everything. If you were to take a walk through the doors of the glass dining hall, one might easily be confused that they are walking through the doors of the Titanic.  You probably would have had your eyes lit up by the finest linens, best China, and full service with waitresses and hosts.  Your jacket would be taken right away at the door and the food would always be hot and served with the best smells arising.  This summer seasonal place is for formal, sit-down dinners only.  The men dress in tuxedos and the women dress in long, extravagant gowns.  Durant constructed the glass dining hall with onlyone entrance to let in only the high-upper class.  In order to get the effect of being out in nature, dinner guests could look outside at the lake through surrounding original lead-framed glass windows.  Taking a few steps outside the hall, from the past to the present, you will now arrive at the beautiful view of the Huntington Camp's Raquette Lake.  There, the guests would stand by the water and converse amongst themselves as an after-dinner ritual.  And, still today, visitors of the camp continue to walk by the water and sit on the dock for some peace and relaxation throughout the day.
