During
2017,
KIM Lincoln, LLC (“KIM Lincoln”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Lincoln Square Property, LP (“Lincoln Member”) entered into a joint venture agreement wherein KIM Lincoln has a
90%
controlling interest and Lincoln Member has a
10%
noncontrolling interest. The joint venture acquired land parcels in Philadelphia, PA to be held for development for a gross purchase price of
$10.0
million. Based upon the Company

Effective
April 1, 2017,
certain aspects of this development project, aggregating
$24.5

T
he Company is assessing the development model for this asset, which
may
include a mixed-use component, and anticipates a near term delay in the timing of development. As such, the Company considers this project as land held for future development effective
December 31, 2017.

During
2017,
the Company reclassified
this project to undeveloped land on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, as it is
no
longer anticipated to be developed by the Company.
 
D
uring the years ended
December 31, 2017
and
2016,
the Company capitalized (i) interest of
$11.0
million and
$6.9
million, (ii) real estate taxes, insurance and legal costs of
$5.7
million and
$5.2
million and (iii) payroll of
$3.3
million and
$1.8
million, respectively, in connection with these real estate development projects.
 
During
2016,
the Company acquired from its partner the remaining ownership interest in
Dania Pointe, which was held in a joint venture in which the Company has a
55.0%
noncontrolling interest for a gross purchase price of
$84.2
million. The Company evaluated this transaction pursuant to the FASB’s Consolidation guidance and as a result,
no
gain on change in control of interest was recognized as there was
no
fair value adjustment associated with the Company’s previously held equity interest. Based upon the Company’s intent to develop the property, the Company allocated the gross purchase price to Real estate under development on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 
During
2016,
the Company acquired, in separate transactions,
three
additional land parcels adjacent to
two
existing development projects for an aggregate purchase price of
$13.8
million.
