Starbucks takes big step in bringing Dallas' Southwest Center Mall back to life
The Starbucks that opened Friday near Southwest Center Mall isn't just any coffee shop.
The store on Camp Wisdom Road lights up like a little jewel box at night, one that brings tears of joy to those who have waited decades for good things to start happening at a once-vibrant mall in southern Dallas County.
"This is a project of love. It's meaningful for me, personally," said Traci York, Starbucks' regional vice president responsible for 750 stores in Texas and three other states. "[Seeing our logo on this new building, I had to gather myself.]("
This Starbucks is one of a dozen locations — community stores, as the company describes them — that hire and train young people from underserved neighborhoods around them. It's also meant to be a catalyst for the mall's comeback.
