Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivatives and Hedging Activities Derivatives and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to certain risks relating to our ongoing business operations, including the impact of changes in interest rates. The only risk managed by us using derivative instruments is our interest rate risk. As required under prior loan agreements, we had interest rate cap agreements to manage our interest rate risk exposure on the Mountain Floating Rate Loan and other loans, with interest payable at a rate equal to SOFR plus a premium. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, we have only entered into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which we or our related parties may also have other financial relationships. None of our counterparties has failed to meet their obligations.
Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium. For derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in cumulative other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis, as documented at hedge inception in accordance with our accounting policy election. The earnings recognition of excluded components is presented in interest expense. Amounts reported in cumulative other comprehensive loss related to derivatives are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our applicable debt.
On May 8, 2026, our consolidated joint venture obtained a $1,620,000 fixed rate mortgage loan and used the proceeds from such loan to repay in full the Mountain Floating Rate Loan and $204,999 of its amortizing fixed rate debt. In connection with the repayment of the Mountain Floating Rate Loan, we discontinued hedge accounting for the related derivative instrument, which had previously been designated as a cash flow hedge of variable interest payments on the Mountain Floating Rate Loan, and we reclassified $1,881 from cumulative other comprehensive loss to interest and other income. On May 11, 2026, our consolidated joint venture sold its interest rate cap for proceeds of $4,912.
