​
| (1) | Each of these stores are located adjacent to an existing consolidated joint venture store. Given this proximity, each of these stores has been combined with the adjacent existing store in our store count upon opening, as well as for operational and reporting purposes.
​
| (2) | During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company, through a joint venture in which it owned a 90% interest that was previously consolidated, completed the construction of this store and it was opened for operation. On December 14, 2021, the Company acquired the 10% interest of the noncontrolling member in the venture that owned the store for $3.4 million. Prior to this transaction, the noncontrolling member’s interest in this venture was reported in Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries on the
|  | consolidated balance sheets. Since the Company retained its controlling interest in the venture and the store is now wholly owned, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest was reduced to zero to reflect the purchase and the difference between the purchase price paid by the Company and the carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest of $2.7 million was recorded as an adjustment to equity attributable to the Company, with no gain or loss recorded. The $13.2 million related party loan extended by the Company to the venture that owned the store was repaid in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of the noncontrolling member’s ownership interest.
​
| (3) | These stores were previously owned by two separate consolidated joint ventures, of which the Company held a 51% ownership interest in each. On September 29, 2020, the noncontrolling member in the venture that owned the Brooklyn, NY store put its 49% interest in the venture to the Company for $10.0 million, of which $1.0 million was paid in cash. The Company issued 276,497 OP Units that were valued at approximately $9.0 million as consideration for the remainder of the purchase price (see note 12). On June 29, 2021, the noncontrolling member in the venture that owned the East Meadow, NY store put its 49% interest in the venture to the Company for $6.6 million. The cash payments related to these transactions are included in Development costs in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
