Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Schedule of Derivatives
We have entered into, and subsequently settled, the following forward-starting interest rate swap agreements and U.S. Treasury Rate Lock agreements to hedge against changes in future cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates from the trade date through the forecasted issuance of the respective senior unsecured notes. In each case, the derivatives were designated as cash flow hedges and, accordingly, the unrealized gain in Accumulated other comprehensive income is amortized over the term of the respective derivative instruments, which matches that of the underlying note, as a reduction in interest expense.
