Leases [Abstract] |
Leases | Leases Lessor Arrangements We lease real estate properties, comprised primarily of office properties and data center shells, to third parties. As of March 31, 2020, these leases, which may encompass all, or a portion of, a property, had remaining terms spanning from one month to 15 years and averaging approximately five years. Our lease revenue is comprised of: fixed lease revenue, including contractual rent billings under leases recognized on a straight-line basis over lease terms and amortization of lease incentives and above- and below- market lease intangibles; and variable lease revenue, including tenant expense recoveries, lease termination revenue and other revenue from tenants that is not fixed under the lease. The table below sets forth our allocation of lease revenue recognized between fixed and variable lease revenue (in thousands):

(1) As of March 31, 2020, represents the nine months ending December 31, 2020. Lessee arrangements We lease land underlying certain properties that we are operating or developing from third parties. These ground leases have long durations with remaining terms ranging from 29 years (excluding extension options) to 96 years. As of March 31, 2020, our balance sheet included $68.2 million in right-of-use assets associated with ground leases that included:
• | $37.8 million for land on which we are developing an office property in Washington, DC through our Stevens Investors, LLC joint venture, virtually all of the rent on which was previously paid. This lease has a 96-year remaining term, and we possess a bargain purchase option that we expect to exercise in 2020;
• | $10.3 million for land underlying operating office properties in Washington, DC under two leases with remaining terms of approximately 80 years;
• | $6.5 million for land underlying a parking garage in Baltimore, Maryland under a lease with a remaining term of 29 years and an option to renew for an additional 49 years that was included in the term used in determining the asset balance;
• | $6.6 million for land in a research park in College Park, Maryland under four leases through our M Square Associates, LLC joint venture all of the rent on which was previously paid. These leases had remaining terms ranging from 63 to 74 years;
• | $4.8 million for land in a business park in Huntsville, Alabama under nine leases through our LW Redstone Company, LLC joint venture, with remaining terms ranging from 43 to 50 years and options to renew for an additional 25 years that were not included in the term used in determining the asset balance; and
• | $2.3 million for other land underlying operating properties in our Fort Meade/BW Corridor sub-segment under two leases with remaining terms of approximately 48 years, all of the rent on which was previously paid.
