Investments in Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
Investments in Joint Ventures | 4. Investments in Joint Ventures On February 13, 2012, we acquired the 85% equity interest in one property from the institutional investor in the 2003 Net Lease Joint Venture (See Note 3). At March 31, 2012, the 2003 Net Lease Joint Venture owned six industrial properties comprising approximately 3.1 million square feet of GLA. The 2003 Net Lease Joint Venture is considered a variable interest entity in accordance with the FASB guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities. However, we continue to conclude that we are not the primary beneficiary of this venture. As of March 31, 2012, our investment in the 2003 Net Lease Joint Venture is $1,044. Our maximum exposure to loss is equal to our investment plus any future contributions we make to the venture. We continue to hold our 10% equity interest in the 2007 Europe Joint Venture. As of March 31, 2012, the 2007 Europe Joint Venture did not own any properties. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have receivables from the Joint Ventures (and/or our former Joint Venture partners) in the aggregate amount of $131 and $137, respectively. These receivable amounts are included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized fees of $76 and $310 from our Joint Ventures (and/or our former Joint Venture partners).
