Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Other Commitments And Contingencies	Other Commitments and Contingencies As of March 31, 2019, the Company had an aggregate of approximately $83.0 million of commitments to fund development projects including seven entertainment development projects for which it had commitments to fund approximately $23.7 million, five recreation development projects for which it had commitments to fund approximately $38.3 million and five education development projects for which it had commitments to fund approximately $21.0 million. Development costs are advanced by the Company in periodic draws. If the Company determines that construction is not being completed in accordance with the terms of the development agreement, it can discontinue funding construction draws. The Company has agreed to lease the properties to the operators at pre-determined rates upon completion of construction. Additionally, as of March 31, 2019, the Company had a commitment to fund approximately $206.9 million, of which $178.8 million had been funded, to complete an indoor waterpark hotel and adventure park at the Resorts World Catskills project in Sullivan County, New York. This project is expected to go into service in the second quarter of 2019. The Company is also responsible for the construction of the Resorts World Catskills project common infrastructure. In June 2016, the Sullivan County Infrastructure Local Development Corporation issued $110.0 million of Series 2016 Revenue Bonds which funded a substantial portion of such construction costs. For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018, the Company received total reimbursements of $74.2 million of construction costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company received an additional reimbursement of $11.5 million. Construction of infrastructure improvements was completed in 2018. The Company has certain commitments related to its mortgage note investments that it may be required to fund in the future. The Company is generally obligated to fund these commitments at the request of the borrower or upon the occurrence of events outside of its direct control. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had three mortgage notes receivable with commitments totaling approximately $2.8 million. If commitments are funded in the future, interest will be charged at rates consistent with the existing investments. At December 31, 2018, the Company had $5.3 million in other assets and $16.1 million in other liabilities related to the Company's payment guarantees of two economic development revenue bonds. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company prepaid in full one of the two economic development revenue bonds totaling $6.2 million and the other liability of the same amount related to the Company's obligation to stand ready to perform under the terms of the guarantee was extinguished. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company exercised its collateral assignment rights under its Guaranty Fee Agreement and assumed the remaining economic development revenue bond totaling $18.6 million with a maturity date of December 22, 2047 and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 150 basis points which was 3.99% at March 31, 2019. The Company took ownership of and recorded the leasehold interest and improvements for the theatre in Louisiana that secures the bond at fair value which approximated $14.0 million at March 31, 2019. The other asset of $5.3 million and other liability of $9.9 million related to the Company's obligation to stand ready to perform under the terms of the guarantee were extinguished. No gain or loss was recognized on these transactions. At March 31, 2019, the Company does not have any remaining guarantee assets or liabilities. In connection with construction of its development projects and related infrastructure, certain public agencies require posting of surety bonds to guarantee that the Company's obligations are satisfied. These bonds expire upon the completion of the improvements or infrastructure. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had four surety bonds outstanding totaling $50.7 million. Early Childhood Education Tenant During 2017, cash flow of Children's Learning Adventure USA (CLA or CLA Parent) was negatively impacted by challenges brought on by its rapid expansion and related ramp up to stabilization and by adverse weather conditions in Texas during the third quarter of 2017. As a result, CLA initiated negotiations with the Company and other landlords regarding a potential restructuring. However, CLA did not secure the investments necessary to accomplish the restructuring. As a result, the Company sent CLA notices of lease termination on October 12, 2017 for the following CLA properties: (i) Broomfield, Colorado, (ii) Ashburn, Virginia, (iii) West Chester, Ohio, (iv) Chanhassen, Minnesota, (v) Ellisville, Missouri, (vi) Farm Road-Las Vegas, Nevada, (vii) Fishers, Indiana, (viii) Tredyffrin, Pennsylvania, and (ix) Westerville, Ohio. On December 18, 2017, ten subsidiaries of CLA Parent (CLA Debtors) filed separate voluntary petitions for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court (Court) for the District of Arizona (Jointly Administered under Case No. 2:17-bk-14851-BMW), covering substantially all of the Company's properties leased to CLA. CLA Parent has not filed a petition for bankruptcy. It is the Company's understanding that the CLA Debtors filed bankruptcy petitions to stay the termination of the remaining CLA leases and delay the eviction process. On January 8, 2018, the Company filed with the Court (i) motions seeking rent for the post-petition period beginning on December 18, 2017, and (ii) motions seeking relief from the automatic stay seeking the right to terminate the remaining leases and evict the CLA Debtors from the properties. On March 14, 2018, CLA Parent, the CLA Debtors and certain other CLA subsidiaries (CLA Parties) and the Company entered into a Stipulation providing that (a) the CLA Parties would pay rent for the months of March through July for an aggregate total of $4.3 million, (b) resolution of restructuring of the leases between the Company and the CLA Parties would be concluded no later than July 31, 2018 (the Forbearance Period), (c) relief from stay would be granted with respect to the Company’s properties as needed to implement the Stipulation, (d) the parties would not commence or prosecute litigation against any other party during the Forbearance Period, and (e) the deadline for any motion by the CLA Debtors to assume or reject the leases under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code would be extended to July 31, 2018. On May 7, 2018, the Court entered an order approving the Stipulation. The CLA Parties made all of the rent payments required by the Stipulation. In July 2018, the Company entered into a new lease agreement with CLA Parent related to the 21 operating properties which replaced the prior lease arrangements and continued on a month-to-month basis. The lease agreement provided for monthly rent of $1.0 million plus approximately $170 thousand for pro-rata property taxes. The CLA Parties relinquished control of four properties that were still under development as the Company no longer intended to develop these properties. Two of these properties were sold in February 2019. In February 2019, the CLA Parties and the Company entered into agreements (collectively, the PSA) providing for the purchase and sale of certain assets associated with the businesses located at the 21 operating CLA properties whereby the Company could nominate a third party operator to take an assignment and transfer of such assets from the CLA Parties and receive certain beneficial rights under various related ancillary agreements. Consideration provided by the Company for the asset transfers would include the release of past due rent obligations, previously fully reserved by the Company, and additional consideration of approximately $15.0 million which includes approximately $3.5 million for equipment used in the operations of the Company's schools. The CLA Parties agreed to surrender possession of any of those properties that have not been transferred to a replacement operator prior to March 31, 2020 and agreed to continue leasing and operating each of the 21 properties for an aggregate of approximately $1.0 million per month of minimum rent until the transfer of each property to the Company’s replacement tenant or surrender of the property. Additionally, in February 2019, the Company entered into leases of all 21 operating CLA properties with Crème de la Crème (Crème), a national early childhood education operator. These leases are contingent upon the Company delivering possession of the properties and include different financial terms based on whether or not the CLA Parties deliver Crème the assets associated with the in-place operations of the school. The leases have 20-year terms that commence upon Crème beginning operations of the schools. Additionally, Crème and the Company each have early termination rights based on school level economic performance. On February 27, 2019, CLA filed a motion with the Court seeking authorization of the sale of assets as required by the PSA. A condition to the parties’ obligations under the PSA was the Court’s approval of the motion. The Court held a hearing regarding such approval on April 10, 2019. At the hearing, the Court did not rule on the motion based upon objections from another landlord of CLA. To mitigate the risk that CLA Parent would file for bankruptcy protection and delay our transfer of the properties to Crème, the Company terminated the PSA on April 11, 2019. However, the lease of the properties to CLA Parent was not terminated and is expected to continue while each property is operated by it. The Company has informed CLA Parent and the other landlord that it is willing to consider an overall agreement regarding the transfer of properties to Crème if those parties can agree to cooperate. The Company understands that CLA Parent and the other landlord have not resolved those issues. However, the Company and CLA Parent have discussed a process that would provide for the continuation of the lease to CLA Parent and the transfer of the properties one at a time to Crème as it receives the necessary licenses and permits for each property. The terms for such transfers would be similar to those contained in the PSA, except that the CLA Debtors would not be involved. The Company has determined that the exclusion of any assets held by the CLA Debtors would not be material to the transfer of the operations of the properties to Crème. CLA Parent continues to cooperate with Crème by providing access to facilities, staff and information. With this assistance, Crème has made substantial progress with its license applications and preparations to begin operating these schools later in 2019. This process must be undertaken on a state-by-state basis and is expected to be substantially complete before the end of 2019. There can be no assurance that Crème will timely obtain necessary licenses and permits, and therefore there can be no assurance as to the outcome of the contemplated transaction or whether some or all of the properties will be transferred to Crème with in-place operations. In addition, there can be no assurance that CLA Parent will continue to cooperate with Crème and provide access to personnel and information needed to acquire the operations of the properties. If the Company is unable to transfer the properties to Crème with in-place operations, the Company intends to take possession of the properties and transfer them without operations. If some or all of the schools are not transferred to Crème with in-place operations, there will be a delay in re-opening such schools and a corresponding reduction in near term rents from Crème.
