Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
SEGMENT INFORMATION | SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company measures performance and allocates resources according to property type, which is determined based on certain criteria such as type of tenants, capital requirements, economic risks, leasing terms, and short- and long-term returns on capital. Rental income and tenant reimbursements from tenant leases provide the majority of revenues from all segments. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2. The Company's segment information for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 has been retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect a change in our reportable segments. The Company no longer separately presents quantitatively and qualitatively insignificant reportable segments. Information on the Company’s reportable segments is presented as follows:
