DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;In September 2010, the Board of Directors concluded that it is in the best interest of the Company to discontinue its financial support of Regency Square, including not funding the mortgage debt that is due in November 2011. As a result, the Company has begun discussions with the lender about the center&amp;#8217;s future ownership. At the current time, subject to decisions by the lender, the Company will continue to manage the shopping center. The Regency Square loan was not in default as of December 31, 2010.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;In 2009, the Company concluded that the carrying value (book value) of the investment in Regency Square was impaired and recognized a non-cash charge of $59.0 million, representing the excess book value of the investment over its fair value of approximately $29 million. The Company&amp;#8217;s conclusion was based on estimates of future cash flows for the property, which were negatively impacted by necessary capital expenditures and declining net operating income. The book value of the investment in Regency Square as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $30 million, which includes additional capital spending that was anticipated in determining the fair value in 2009.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt;The Pier Shops at Caesars&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;In 2009, the Company concluded that the carrying value of the investment in the consolidated joint venture that owns The Pier Shops was impaired and recognized a non-cash charge of $107.7 million, representing the excess of The Pier Shops&amp;#8217; book value of the investment over its fair value of approximately $52 million. The Operating Partnership&amp;#8217;s share of the charge was $101.8 million. The Company&amp;#8217;s conclusion was based on a decision by its Board of Directors, in connection with a review of the Company&amp;#8217;s capital plan, to discontinue the Company&amp;#8217;s financial support of The Pier Shops. The $135&amp;#160;million loan encumbering The Pier Shops is currently in default. The administration of the loan has been turned over to the special servicer. The book value of the investment in The Pier Shops as of December 31, 2010 was approximately $44 million. See Note 7 for more information on the loan and Note 14 for more information on related litigation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;Regarding both Regency Square and The Pier Shops, a non-cash accounting gain will be recognized for each center when its loan obligation is extinguished upon transfer of title of the respective center. The gain will represent the difference between the book value of the debt, interest payable and other obligations extinguished over the net book value of the property and any other assets transferred. The transition processes are not in the Company&amp;#8217;s control and the timing of transfer of title for each of the centers is uncertain. The Company will continue to record the operations of the centers and interest on the loans in its results until ownership of the centers has been transferred.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt;Oyster Bay&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;In&amp;#160;2008, the Company recognized an impairment charge to income of $117.9&amp;#160;million for the Oyster Bay project. The determination to recognize this charge was reached after an overall assessment of the probability of the development of the mall as designed and as a result of the delay in obtaining a special use permit. The charge included the costs of previous development activities as well as holding and other costs that management believes will likely not benefit the development if and when the Company obtains the rights to build the center. The Company is expensing costs relating to Oyster Bay until it is probable that it will be able to successfully move forward with a project. The Company&amp;#8217;s remaining capitalized investment in the project as of December&amp;#160;31, 2010 is $39.8&amp;#160;million, which is classified in &amp;#8220;development pre-construction costs&amp;#8221; and consists of land and site improvements. If the Company is ultimately unsuccessful in obtaining the right to build the center, it is uncertain whether the Company would be able to recover the full amount of this capitalized investment through alternate uses of the land.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt;The Mall at Partridge Creek&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;In May&amp;#160;2006, the Company engaged the services of a third-party investor to acquire certain property associated with Partridge Creek, in order to facilitate a Section 1031 like-kind exchange to provide flexibility for disposing of assets in the future. The Company provided approximately 45% of the project funding and the owner provided $9&amp;#160;million in equity. Funding for the remaining project costs was provided by the owner&amp;#8217;s third-party recourse construction loan. In September&amp;#160;2008, the Company exercised its option to purchase the third-party owner&amp;#8217;s interests in Partridge Creek. The purchase price of $11.8&amp;#160;million included the original owner's equity contribution of $9&amp;#160;million plus a 12% cumulative return. The excess of the purchase price over the book value of the interests acquired was approximately $3.8&amp;#160;million and was allocated principally to building and improvements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; TEXT-DECORATION: underline"&gt;Other&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-INDENT: 9pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="justify"&gt;&lt;font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;One shopping center pays annual special assessment levies of a Community Development District (CDD), for which the Company has capitalized the related infrastructure assets and improvements (Note&amp;#160;16).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</NonNumbericText><NonNumericTextHeader>Note 3 &amp;#8211; PropertiesProperties at December&amp;#160;31, 2010 and December&amp;#160;31, 2009 are summarized as follows:&amp;#160;</NonNumericTextHeader><FootnoteIndexer /><CurrencyCode /><CurrencySymbol /><IsIndependantCurrency>false</IsIndependantCurrency><ShowCurrencySymbol>false</ShowCurrencySymbol><DisplayDateInUSFormat>false</DisplayDateInUSFormat><hasSegments>false</hasSegments><hasScenarios>false</hasScenarios></Cell></Cells><OriginalInstanceReportColumns /><Unit>Other</Unit><ElementDataType>us-types:textBlockItemType</ElementDataType><SimpleDataType>string</SimpleDataType><ElementDefenition>Disclosure of long-lived, physical assets that are used in the normal conduct of business to produce goods and services and not intended for resale.
