The following provides key updates to our 2021 guidance based on our current view of existing market conditions and other assumptions for the year ending December 31, 2021. There can be no assurance that actual amounts will not be materially higher or lower than these expectations.
Key updates include projected 2021 acquisitions, construction spending, real estate dispositions, partial interest sales, and common equity, incremental debt, occupancy, capitalized interest, and interest expense as shown in the following tables related to the pending acquisition of 401 Park Drive, 201 Brookline Avenue and one future development opportunity. We remain committed to our guidance for net debt and preferred stock to Adjusted EBITDA – fourth quarter of 2021, annualized, of less than or equal to 5.2x.
