(1)Ownership interest and economic interest represent the Company's interests in the joint venture as of June 30, 2023. Changes in ownership or economic interests within the current year are disclosed in the notes below.
(2)The joint venture that owns 1552 Broadway also owns a long-term leasehold interest in the retail space and certain other spaces at 1560 Broadway, which is adjacent to 1552 Broadway.
(3)We hold a 32.28% interest in three retail units and one residential unit at the property and a 16.14% interest in two residential units at the property.
(4)The joint venture owns a long-term leasehold interest in the retail space at 650 Fifth Avenue.
(5)In 2020, the Company formed a joint venture, which then entered into a long-term sublease with the Company.
(6)In 2020, the Company admitted partners to the One Madison Avenue development project, which resulted in the Company no longer retaining a controlling interest in the entity, as defined in ASC 810, and deconsolidation of our remaining 50.5% interest. We recorded our investment at fair value, which resulted in the recognition of a fair value adjustment of $187.5 million. The fair value of our investment was determined by the terms of the joint venture agreement governing the capitalization of the project. The partners have committed aggregate equity to the project totaling no less than $501.8 million and their ownership interest in the joint venture is based on their capital contributions, up to an aggregate maximum of 49.5%. As of June 30, 2023, the total of the two partners' ownership interests based on equity contributed was 40.0%. In 2021, the Company admitted an additional partner to the development project for a committed aggregate equity investment totaling no less than $259.3 million. The partner's indirect ownership interest in the joint venture is based on its capital contributions, up to an aggregate maximum of 25.0%. The transaction did not meet sale accounting under ASC 860 and, as a result, was treated as a secured borrowing for accounting purposes and is included in Other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
(7)The 50.1% ownership interest reflected in this table is comprised of our 25.1% economic interest and a 25.0% economic interest held by a third-party. The third-party's economic interest is held within a joint venture that we consolidate and recognize in Noncontrolling interests in other partnerships on our consolidated balance sheet. An additional third-party owns the remaining 49.9% economic interest in the property.
(8)In June 2023, the Company sold a 49.9% interest, which resulted in the Company no longer retaining a controlling interest in the entity, as defined in ASC 810, and deconsolidation of the 50.1% interest we retained. We recorded our investment at fair value which resulted in the recognition of a fair value adjustment of ($17.0 million) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The fair value of our investment was determined by the terms of the joint venture agreement.
