We’ll be off the rest of the year, and back in your inbox on Jan. 6. Happy holidays! The meaning of homeownership By Alexander Wooley Since 1916 and by one name or another, 233 12th St. SE in Washington has been a store — a landmark and meeting place of the Lincoln Park neighborhood. Christine Campbell, 59, recalls it always being Mott’s Market, even as it changed hands. “Grandmother would send us to the corner store to pick up things she needed for breakfast or dinner,” Ms. Campbell said. “My uncles would talk about playing the numbers at the corner. Mott’s served as a place where information was shared.” But in the spring of 2022, the Choi family, which had owned the building, including the store, for 40 years, put it up for sale, stoking fears that it would be torn down or turned into something that wouldn’t fit the neighborhood. Ms. Campbell began talking to her neighbors about how to stop the inevitable. The answer was simple: Buy the building. That is what Ms. Campbell’s family has done for generations. The Campbell family has built a real estate legacy — starting in Charlotte Hall, Md., with Wesley Plater, Ms. Campbell’s great-grandfather, who worked as a sharecropper and was willed the land he tended, to 2020 when Ms. Campbell and her two brothers bought a bed-and-breakfast in Gettysburg, Pa. As the owners of the Keystone Inn, the Campbell siblings are the first Black hospitality proprietors in the historic home of the Battle of Gettysburg and President Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. It’s a legacy that beats the odds: Black people face discrimination in home buying, getting loans and having their houses appraised. Black mortgage applicants are 2.9 percent more likely to have their applications denied, and when they do own, they face a 10 to 13 percent higher tax burden than white homeowners because of assessments, according to the Brookings Institution. “Owning property has been part of our history and gives us a sense of security, family, and home,” Ms. Campbell said. Still, buying Mott’s Market proved more difficult than Ms. Campbell and her neighbors thought. They formed the coalition Save Mott’s Market and offered $1 million, but lost to an all-cash buyer willing to pay the full price of $1.25 million. In the aftermath, the Choi family issued a statement: “We appreciate the showing of support for the store and wish the outcome could’ve been different. Please let them know that it was an honor to serve the community for almost 40 years and that we will always cherish those memories.” [The interior of a house with portraits on the wall and a decorated Christmas tree.] Portraits of Plater Campbell at his graduation from Penn State in 1952, and his wife, Joan, shortly before their marriage in 1955, hang in the home on Walker Street. Scott Suchman for The New York Times ‘Great Grandpop,’ Leroy and Flossie It was devastating for Ms. Campbell, whose family interest in real estate predates their move into the District, starting with her grandfather whom she calls “Great Grandpop.” [Continue reading the main story](#a11y-skip-universal-0) ADVERTISEMENT [Ad](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnaVECP0SZaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9MTc0MTQ5JmxpPVJSJm09YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcD1SUl8yMDIzMTIyMyZ0ZT0xJm5sPXJhY2UlMkZyZWxhdGVkJmVtYz1lZGl0X3JyXzIwMjMxMjIzVwNueXRCCmWDAsyGZc6vYkVSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) “My great-grandfather wrote his will such that the Maryland property needed to stay in the family as long as any of his children were alive, so they would always have a home to go to,” Ms. Campbell said. “In the meantime, there was a migration of sorts from Southern Maryland to D.C. Through word of mouth, families decided where to settle, tending to move together to certain parts of the city. My family initially settled in this part of D.C.” Walter Street in Lincoln Park had been designated for Black residents primarily through racially restrictive deed covenants — private contracts aimed at confining D.C.’s growing Black population to certain parts of the city, according to research by Prologue DC LLC, a woman-owned business that maps the history of segregation in the city. In 1927, Ms. Campbell’s grandparents Flossie Campbell, a beautician, and Leroy Campbell, a postal worker at a time when the mail was delivered on bicycles, saw an ad in The Washington Herald calling for “Reliable Colored Buyers, $100 Cash Will Buy You a Beautiful Home,” according to Plater Campbell, 95, Ms. Campbell’s father. The Campbells settled on a two-story brick house on Walter Street, barely a mile from the U.S. Capitol and the Supreme Court. The house had been built in 1912 to a design by the 20-year old architect A.E. Landvoigt. The couple paid $4,000 for the house. Plater Campbell was born in the house. He recalled the segregation of the neighborhood. “Despite the conditions, we were very happy. The neighborhood was congenial, very personable. The kids put together a baseball team. Most of my friends did very well in life, we kept in touch for years,” he said, in a phone interview. “I’m one of the last ones left.” [Continue reading the main story](#a11y-skip-universal-0) ADVERTISEMENT [Ad](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnaVECP0SZaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9MjA3NTc3JmxpPVJSJm09YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmcD1SUl8yMDIzMTIyMyZ0ZT0xJm5sPXJhY2UlMkZyZWxhdGVkJmVtYz1lZGl0X3JyXzIwMjMxMjIzVwNueXRCCmWDAsyGZc6vYkVSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~) Read the rest of the story [here](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnaVECP0TgaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8xMi8yMi9yZWFsZXN0YXRlL2JsYWNrLWhvbWVvd25lcnNoaXAuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zNyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ycl8yMDIzMTIyMyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTA4NDImbmw9cmFjZSUyRnJlbGF0ZWQmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE1MzMzMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZYMCzIZlzq9iRVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD).
