From GlobeSt.com late Friday came this good-news exclusive: Dallas-based NorthPoint Properties is set to sink $30 million into a sprawling "retail gateway" at the intersection of Samuell and Buckner Boulevards. It'll be called Buckner Crossing, with the first phase scheduled to open next summer. Notes Connie Gore this a.m. of the development: "Buckner Crossing is the first ground-up retail to rise in five years in a diverse ethnic pocket with 324,432 residents in a five-mile radius and an annual average household income of $54,842." --Robert Wilonsky

Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism.
