|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |  |  | 2011 |
Land held for development(A) |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 10.1 |  |  | $ | 54.2 |
Undeveloped land(B) |  |  | 3.0 |  |  |  | 20.1 |  |  |  | 9.0 |
Assets marketed for sale(B) |  |  | 42.0 |  |  |  | 28.6 |  |  |  | — |

Joint venture investments(C) |  |  | 1.0 |  |  |  | 26.7 |  |  |  | 2.9 |
Total impairment charges |  | $ | 73.6 |  |  | $ | 153.2 |  |  | $ | 128.8 |
(A) | Amounts reported in the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily related to land held for development in Canada that was owned through a consolidated joint venture (Note 14).
Amounts reported in the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily were related to the investment in land held for development in Russia (the “Yaroslavl Project”) and land held for development in Canada that were owned through consolidated joint ventures. The Company’s proportionate share of the loss was $50.4 million after adjusting for the allocation of loss to the non-controlling interest in certain of the projects. The Company sold its interest in the land held for development in Canada in the fourth quarter of 2011 to its joint venture partner in the project (Note 14). The Yaroslavl Project was sold to a third party in the first quarter of 2012 (Note 14).
(B) | These charges were triggered primarily due to the Company’s marketing of these assets for sale and management’s assessment of the likelihood and timing of one or more potential transactions.
(C) | Represents “other than temporary impairment” charges on unconsolidated joint venture investments. In 2012, the charges related primarily to the investment in the Coventry II DDR Montgomery Farm LLC joint venture in which the Company has sold its interest.
Impairment Charges Measured at Fair Value on Non-Recurring Basis | The following table presents information about the Company’s impairment charges on both financial and nonfinancial assets that were measured on a fair value basis for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. The table also indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques used by the Company to determine such fair value (in millions).
