Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Interim Financial Statements | INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements included in this report are unaudited; however, amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 are derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information on a basis consistent with the annual audited consolidated financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. The consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of Whitestone and our subsidiaries as of June 30, 2017 , and the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the consolidated statements of changes in equity for the six month period ended June 30, 2017 and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . All of these adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year. The statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . Business . Whitestone was formed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) pursuant to the Texas Real Estate Investment Trust Act on August 20, 1998. In July 2004, we changed our state of organization from Texas to Maryland pursuant to a merger where we merged directly with and into a Maryland REIT formed for the sole purpose of the reorganization and the conversion of each of the outstanding common shares of beneficial interest of the Texas entity into 1.42857 common shares of beneficial interest of the Maryland entity. We serve as the general partner of Whitestone REIT Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), which was formed on December 31, 1998 as a Delaware limited partnership. We currently conduct substantially all of our operations and activities through the Operating Partnership. As the general partner of the Operating Partnership, we have the exclusive power to manage and conduct the business of the Operating Partnership, subject to certain customary exceptions. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , Whitestone owned or held a majority interest in 72 and 69 commercial properties, respectively, in and around Austin, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Phoenix and San Antonio. These properties consist of: Consolidated Operating Portfolio • 49 wholly-owned properties that meet our Community Centered Properties™ strategy; and • through our 81.4% majority interest in our consolidated subsidiary, Pillarstone Capital REIT Operating Partnership LP, or Pillarstone OP, an interest in 14 consolidated properties that do not meet our Community Centered Properties™ strategy. Redevelopment, New Acquisitions Portfolio • four retail properties that meet our Community Centered Properties™ strategy; and • five parcels of land held for future development. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Consolidation. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and possess full legal control and authority over the operations of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we owned a majority of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Consequently, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Operating Partnership. We also consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”) when we are determined to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Our determination of the primary beneficiary considers all relationships between us and the VIE, including management and other contractual agreements. See Note 6 for additional disclosure on our VIE. Noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represents the share of equity and earnings of the Operating Partnership allocable to holders of partnership interests other than us. Net income or loss is allocated to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted-average percentage ownership of the Operating Partnership during the period. Issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest in Whitestone (the “common shares”) and units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership that are convertible into cash or, at our option, common shares on a one -for- one basis (the “OP units”) changes the percentage of ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interests and Whitestone. Basis of Accounting. Our financial records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates that we use include the estimated fair values of properties acquired, the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets and costs, the estimated allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated fair value of interest rate swaps and the estimates supporting our impairment analysis for the carrying values of our real estate assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications. We have reclassified certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, total assets, total liabilities or equity. Restricted Cash. We classify all cash pledged as collateral to secure certain obligations and all cash whose use is limited as restricted cash. During 2015, pursuant to the terms of our $15.1 million 4.99% Note, due January 6, 2024 (See Note 7), which is collateralized by our Anthem Marketplace property, we were required by the lenders thereunder to establish a cash management account controlled by the lenders to collect all amounts generated by our Anthem Marketplace property in order to collateralize such promissory note. As a result, these amounts are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows under cash flows from financing activities as change in restricted cash. Marketable Securities. We classify our existing marketable equity securities as available-for-sale in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (“FASB”) Investments-Debt and Equity Securities guidance. These securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The fair value of the marketable securities is determined using Level 1 inputs under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” Level 1 inputs represent quoted prices available in an active market for identical investments as of the reporting date. Gains and losses on securities sold are based on the specific identification method, and are reported as a component of interest, dividend and other investment income. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. We utilize derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment, and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instruments. We recognize our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges with the effective portion of the changes in fair value recorded in comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of a cash flow hedges' change in fair value is recorded immediately into earnings. Our cash flow hedges are determined using Level 2 inputs under ASC 820. Level 2 inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable. As of June 30, 2017 , we consider our cash flow hedges to be highly effective. Development Properties. Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost. Expenditures related to the development of real estate are carried at cost which includes capitalized carrying charges and development costs. Carrying charges (interest, real estate taxes, loan fees, and direct and indirect development costs related to buildings under construction), are capitalized as part of construction in progress. The capitalization of such costs ceases when the property, or any completed portion, becomes available for occupancy. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , approximately $84,000 and $64,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , approximately $156,000 and $93,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 , approximately $105,000 and $16,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized, and for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , approximately $132,000 and $32,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized. Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. We consider a commercial property to be held for sale when it meets all of the criteria established under ASC 205, “Presentation of Financial Statements.” For commercial properties classified as held for sale, assets and liabilities are presented separately for all periods presented. In accordance with ASC 205, a discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity. A disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component of an entity or group of components of an entity is classified as held for sale, disposed of by sale or disposed of other than by sale, respectively. In addition, ASC 205 requires us to provide additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not meet the criteria for a discontinued operation. Share-Based Compensation. From time to time, we award nonvested restricted common share awards or restricted common share unit awards, which may be converted into common shares, to executive officers and employees under our 2008 Long-Term Equity Incentive Ownership Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The vast majority of the awarded shares and units vest when certain performance conditions are met. We recognize compensation expense when achievement of the performance conditions is probable based on management's most recent estimates using the fair value of the shares as of the grant date. We recognized $2,390,000 and $1,819,000 in share-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and we recognized $4,841,000 and $3,844,000 in share-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Noncontrolling Interests. Noncontrolling interests is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable to a parent. The ownership interests not held by the parent are considered noncontrolling interests. Accordingly, we have reported noncontrolling interests in equity on the consolidated balance sheets but separate from Whitestone's equity. On the consolidated statements of operations, subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amount, including both the amount attributable to Whitestone and noncontrolling interests. The consolidated statement of changes in equity is included for quarterly financial statements, including beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for shareholders' equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further discussion on significant accounting policies. Recent Accounting Pronouncements . In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged with the exception of changes related to costs which qualify as initial direct costs. The guidance will also require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the timing, amount and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance will be effective for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance simplifying the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, balance sheet classification of awards and the classification on the statement of cash flows. We have adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The main provision regarding excess tax benefits did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements due to our status as a REIT for taxation purposes. We have elected to continue estimating the number of shares expected to vest in order to determine compensation cost, and we will continue to classify cash paid by us for employee taxes when common shares were repurchased to cover minimum statutory requirements as financing activity. In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the scope of asset derecognition guidance, adds guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets and clarifies recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. |

Variable Interest Entities | VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES On December 8, 2016, we, through our Operating Partnership, entered into a Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) with Pillarstone Capital REIT Operating Partnership LP (“Pillarstone,” “Pillarstone OP” or the “Consolidated Partnership”) and Pillarstone Capital REIT (“Pillarstone REIT”) pursuant to which we contributed all of the equity interests in four of our wholly-owned subsidiaries: Whitestone CP Woodland Ph. 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CP Woodland”); Whitestone Industrial-Office, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Industrial-Office”); Whitestone Offices, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Whitestone Offices”); and Whitestone Uptown Tower, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Uptown Tower,” and together with CP Woodland, Industrial-Office and Whitestone Offices, the “Entities”) that own 14 non-core properties that do not fit our Community Centered Property™ strategy (the “Pillarstone Properties”), to Pillarstone OP for aggregate consideration of approximately $84 million , consisting of (1) approximately 18.1 million Class A units representing limited partnership interests in Pillarstone OP (“Pillarstone OP Units”), issued at a price of $1.331 per Pillarstone OP Unit; and (2) the assumption of approximately $65.9 million of liabilities, consisting of (a) approximately $15.5 million of our liability under the 2014 Facility (as defined in Note 9); (b) an approximately $16.3 million promissory note of Uptown Tower under the Loan Agreement, dated as of September 26, 2013, between Uptown Tower, as borrower, and U.S. Bank, National Association, as successor to Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Holdings LLC, as lender; and (c) an approximately $34.1 million promissory note (the “Industrial-Office Promissory Note”) of Industrial-Office issued under the Loan Agreement, dated as of November 26, 2013 (the “Industrial-Office Loan Agreement”), between Industrial-Office, as borrower, and Jackson National Life Insurance Company, as lender (collectively, the “Contribution”). In connection with the Contribution, on December 8, 2016, the Operating Partnership entered into an OP Unit Purchase Agreement (the “OP Unit Purchase Agreement”) with Pillarstone REIT and Pillarstone OP pursuant to which the Operating Partnership agreed to purchase up to an aggregate of $3.0 million of Pillarstone OP Units at a price of $1.331 per Pillarstone OP Unit over the two -year term of the OP Unit Purchase Agreement on the terms set forth therein. The OP Unit Purchase Agreement contains customary closing conditions and the parties have made certain customary representations, warranties and indemnifications to each other in the OP Unit Purchase Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the OP Unit Purchase Agreement, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined therein) of the Company, Pillarstone OP shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Pillarstone OP Units issued thereunder from the Operating Partnership at their initial issue price of $1.331 per Pillarstone OP Unit. In connection with the Contribution, (1) with respect to each Pillarstone Property (other than Uptown Tower), Whitestone TRS, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company (“Whitestone TRS”), entered into a Management Agreement with the Entity that owns such Pillarstone Property and (2) with respect to Uptown Tower, Whitestone TRS entered into a Management Agreement with Pillarstone OP (collectively, the “Management Agreements”). Pursuant to the Management Agreements with respect to each Pillarstone Property (other than Uptown Tower), Whitestone TRS agreed to provide certain property management, leasing and day-to-day advisory and administrative services to such Pillarstone Property in exchange for (x) a monthly property management fee equal to 5.0% of the monthly revenues of such Pillarstone Property and (y) a monthly asset management fee equal to 0.125% of GAV (as defined in each Management Agreement as, generally, the purchase price of the respective Pillarstone Property based upon the purchase price allocations determined pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, excluding all indebtedness, liabilities or claims of any nature) of such Pillarstone Property. Pursuant to the Management Agreement with respect to Uptown Tower, Whitestone TRS agreed to provide certain property management, leasing and day-to-day advisory and administrative services to Pillarstone OP in exchange for (x) a monthly property management fee equal to 3.0% of the monthly revenues of Uptown Tower and (y) a monthly asset management fee equal to 0.125% of GAV of Uptown Tower. In connection with the Contribution, on December 8, 2016, the Operating Partnership entered into a Tax Protection Agreement with Pillarstone REIT and Pillarstone pursuant to which Pillarstone agreed to indemnify the Operating Partnership for certain tax liabilities resulting from its recognition of income or gain prior to December 8, 2021 if such liabilities result from a transaction involving a direct or indirect taxable disposition of all or a portion of the Pillarstone Properties or if Pillarstone fails to maintain and allocate to the Operating Partnership for taxation purposes minimum levels of liabilities as specified in the Tax Protection Agreement, the result of which causes such recognition of income or gain and the Company incurs taxes that must be paid to maintain its REIT status for federal tax purposes. As of June 30, 2017 , we owned approximately 81.4% of the total outstanding units of Pillarstone OP. Additionally, certain of our officers and trustees serve as officers and trustees of Pillarstone REIT. We have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of Pillarstone OP, through our power to direct the activities of Pillarstone OP, additional working capital required by Pillarstone OP under the OP Unit Purchase Agreement and our obligation to absorb losses and receive benefits based on our ownership percentage. Accordingly, we account for Pillarstone OP as a VIE and fully consolidate in our consolidated financial statements.

As part of our acquisition of Paradise Plaza in August 2012, we recorded a discount on the note of $1.3 million , which amortizes into interest expense over the life of the loan and results in an imputed interest rate of 4.13% . (7) Unsecured line of credit includes certain Pillarstone Properties described in more detail below. On May 26, 2017, we, through our subsidiary, Whitestone Houston BLVD Place LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, issued a $80.0 million promissory note to American General Life Insurance Company (the “BLVD Note”). The BLVD Note has a fixed interest rate of 3.72% and a maturity date of June 1, 2027. Proceeds from the BLVD Note were used to fund a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of BLVD Place (See Note 15 below). On November 7, 2014, we, through our Operating Partnership, entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2014 Facility”) with the lenders party thereto, with BMO Capital Markets, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, and U.S. Bank, National Association, as co-lead arrangers and joint book runners, and Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent (the “Agent”). The 2014 Facility amended and restated our previous unsecured revolving credit facility. On October 30, 2015, we, through our Operating Partnership, entered into the First Amendment to the 2014 Facility (the “First Amendment”) with the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Agent. We refer to the 2014 Facility, as amended by the First Amendment, as the “Facility.” Pursuant to the First Amendment, the Company made the following amendments to the 2014 Facility: • extended the maturity date of the $300 million unsecured revolving credit facility under the 2014 Facility (the “Revolver”) to October 30, 2019 from November 7, 2018; • converted $100 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolver to a new $100 million unsecured term loan under the 2014 Facility (“Term Loan 3”) with a maturity date of October 30, 2022; • extended the maturity date of the first $50 million unsecured term loan under the 2014 Facility (“Term Loan 1”) to October 30, 2020 from February 17, 2017; and • extended the maturity date of the second $50 million unsecured term loan under the 2014 Facility (“Term Loan 2” and together with Term Loan 1 and Term Loan 3, the “Term Loans”) to January 29, 2021 from November 7, 2019. Borrowings under the Facility accrue interest (at the Operating Partnership's option) at a Base Rate or an Adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin based upon our then existing leverage. The applicable margin for Adjusted LIBOR borrowings ranges from 1.40% to 1.95% for the Revolver and 1.35% to 2.25% for the Term Loans. Base Rate means the higher of: (a) the Agent's prime commercial rate, (b) the sum of (i) the average rate quoted by the Agent by two or more federal funds brokers selected by the Agent for sale to the Agent at face value of federal funds in the secondary market in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount for which such rate is being determined, plus (ii) 1/2 of 1.00% , and (c) the LIBOR rate for such day plus 1.00% . Adjusted LIBOR means LIBOR divided by one minus the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage. The Eurodollar Reserve Percentage means the maximum reserve percentage at which reserves are imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on eurocurrency liabilities. We serve as the guarantor for funds borrowed by the Operating Partnership under the Facility. The Facility contains customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting requirements, maximum secured indebtedness to total asset value, minimum EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization or extraordinary items) to fixed charges, and maintenance of a minimum net worth. The Facility also contains customary events of default with customary notice and cure, including, without limitation, nonpayment, breach of covenant, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, cross-default to other major indebtedness, change of control, bankruptcy and loss of REIT tax status. The Facility includes an accordion feature that will allow the Operating Partnership to increase the borrowing capacity to $700 million , upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including new commitments from lenders. As of June 30, 2017 , $427.2 million was drawn on the Facility, and our remaining borrowing capacity was $72.8 million . Proceeds from the Facility were used for general corporate purposes, including property acquisitions, debt repayment, capital expenditures, the expansion, redevelopment and retenanting of properties in our portfolio and working capital. We intend to use the additional proceeds from the Facility for general corporate purposes, including property acquisitions, debt repayment, capital expenditure, the expansion, redevelopment and re-tenanting of properties in our portfolio and working capital. On December 8, 2016, in connection with the Contribution, the Operating Partnership entered into the Second Amendment to the Facility and Reaffirmation of Guaranties (the “Second Amendment”) with Pillarstone, the Company and the other Guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Agent. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, following the Contribution, Whitestone Offices, LLC and Whitestone CP Woodland Ph. 2, LLC were permitted to remain Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the Facility) and Guarantors under the Facility and their respective Pillarstone Properties were each permitted to remain an Eligible Property (as defined in the Facility) and be included in the Borrowing Base (as defined in the Facility) under the Facility. In addition, on December 8, 2016, Pillarstone entered into the Limited Guarantee (the “Limited Guarantee”) with the Agent, pursuant to which Pillarstone agreed to be joined as a party to the Facility to provide a limited guarantee up to the amount of availability generated by the Pillarstone Properties owned by Whitestone Offices, LLC and Whitestone CP Woodland Ph. 2, LLC. As of June 30, 2017 , Pillarstone accounted for approximately $15.5 million of the total amount drawn on the Facility. As of June 30, 2017 , our $237.8 million in secured debt was collateralized by 20 properties with a carrying value of $343.5 million . Our loans contain restrictions that would require the payment of prepayment penalties for the acceleration of outstanding debt and are secured by deeds of trust on certain of our properties and by assignment of the rents and leases associated with those properties. As of June 30, 2017 , we were in compliance with all loan covenants. Scheduled maturities of our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2017 were as follows (in thousands): Year Amount Due 2017 $ 9,667 2018 12,136 2019 235,249 2020 82,827 2021 51,918 Thereafter 273,727 Total $ 665,524 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share for our common shareholders is calculated by dividing income from continuing operations excluding amounts attributable to unvested restricted common shares and the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests by our weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders excluding amounts attributable to unvested restricted common shares and the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests by the weighted average number of common shares including any dilutive unvested restricted common shares. Certain of our performance-based restricted common shares are considered participating securities that require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 1,086,332 and 484,422 OP units, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive, and during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 1,093,042 and 487,722 OP units, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , distributions of $109,000 and $197,000 , respectively, were made to holders of certain restricted common shares, $4,000 and $0 , respectively, of which were charged against earnings, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , distributions of $204,000 and $352,000 , respectively, were made to holders of certain restricted common shares, $8,000 and $0 , respectively, of which were charged against earnings See Note 12 for information related to restricted common shares under the 2008 Plan.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES With the exception of our taxable REIT subsidiaries, federal income taxes are generally not provided because we intend to and believe we qualify as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and because we have distributed and intend to continue to distribute all of our taxable income to our shareholders. As a REIT, we must distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our shareholders and meet certain income sources and investment restriction requirements. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiary, Whitestone Davenport TRS LLC (“Davenport TRS”), is subject to federal income tax. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 , we recognized $54,000 in income tax expense related to Davenport TRS taxable year. Davenport TRS was dissolved in the fourth quarter of 2016. We are subject to the Texas Margin Tax, which is computed by applying the applicable tax rate ( 0.75% for us) to the profit margin, which generally will be determined for us as total revenue less a 30% standard deduction. Although the Texas Margin Tax is not an income tax, FASB ASC 740, “ Income Taxes ” applies to the Texas Margin Tax. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , we recognized approximately $89,000 and $48,000 in margin tax provision, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , we recognized approximately $170,000 and $162,000 in margin tax provision, respectively. |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Equity | EQUITY Common Shares Under our declaration of trust, as amended, we have authority to issue up to 400,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share, and up to 50,000,000 preferred shares of beneficial interest, $0.001 par value per share. Equity Offerings On April 25, 2017, we completed the sale of 8,018,500 common shares, including 1,018,500 common shares purchased by the underwriters upon exercise of their option to purchase additional common shares, at a public offering price per share of $13.00 (the “April Offering”). Total net proceeds from the April Offering, after deducting offering expenses, were approximately $99.9 million , which we contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP units. The Operating Partnership used the net proceeds from the April Offering to repay a portion of the Facility and for general corporate purposes, including funding a portion of the purchase price of BLVD Place and Eldorado Plaza. On June 4, 2015, we entered into six amended and restated equity distribution agreements for an at-the-market equity distribution program (the “2015 equity distribution agreements”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the 2015 equity distribution agreements, we can issue and sell up to an aggregate of $50 million of our common shares. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including (among others) market conditions, the trading price of our common shares, capital needs and our determinations of the appropriate sources of funding for us, and will be made in transactions that will be deemed to be “at-the-market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. We have no obligation to sell any of our common shares, and can at any time suspend offers under the 2015 equity distribution agreements or terminate the 2015 equity distribution agreements. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 , we sold 176,576 common shares under the 2015 equity distribution agreements, with net proceeds to us of approximately $2.4 million . In connection with such sales, we paid compensation of approximately $27,000 to the sales agents. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , we sold 567,302 common shares under the 2015 equity distribution agreements, with net proceeds to us of approximately $7.7 million . In connection with such sales, we paid compensation of approximately $139,000 to the sales agents. We did not sell any common shares under the 2015 equity distribution agreements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 . Operating Partnership Units Substantially all of our business is conducted through our Operating Partnership. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2017 , we owned a 97.3% interest in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners in the Operating Partnership holding OP units have the right to redeem their OP units for cash or, at our option, common shares at a ratio of one OP unit for one common share. Distributions to OP unit holders are paid at the same rate per unit as distributions per share to holders of Whitestone common shares. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , there were 39,489,314 and 30,450,377 OP units outstanding, respectively. We owned 38,405,667 and 29,347,741 OP units as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. The balance of the OP units is owned by third parties, including certain members of our board of trustees. Our weighted average share ownership in the Operating Partnership was approximately 97.1% and 98.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively and approximately 96.8% and 98.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 11,634 and 915 OP units, respectively, were redeemed for an equal number of c ommon shares, and during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 18,989 and 13,016 OP units, respectively, were redeemed for an equal number of common shares. Distributions The following table summarizes the cash distributions paid or payable to holders of common shares and to holders of noncontrolling OP units during each quarter during 2016 and the six months ended June 30, 2017 (in thousands, except per share/unit data): Common Shares Noncontrolling OP Unit Holders Total Quarter Paid Distributions Per Common Share Amount Paid Distributions Per OP Unit Amount Paid Amount Paid 2017 Second Quarter $ 0.2850 $ 10,093 $ 0.2850 $ 310 $ 10,403 First Quarter 0.2850 8,453 0.2850 313 8,766 Total $ 0.5700 $ 18,546 $ 0.5700 $ 623 $ 19,169 2016 Fourth Quarter $ 0.2850 $ 8,305 $ 0.2850 $ 314 $ 8,619 Third Quarter 0.2850 8,109 0.2850 138 8,247 Second Quarter 0.2850 7,786 0.2850 138 7,924 First Quarter 0.2850 7,711 0.2850 139 7,850 Total $ 1.1400 $ 31,911 $ 1.1400 $ 729 $ 32,640 |

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
Incentive Share Plan | INCENTIVE SHARE PLAN On July 29, 2008, our shareholders approved the 2008 Plan. On December 22, 2010, our board of trustees amended the 2008 Plan to allow for awards in or related to Class B common shares pursuant to the 2008 Plan. On June 27, 2012, our Class B common shares were redesignated as “common shares.” The 2008 Plan, as amended, provides that awards may be made with respect to common shares of Whitestone or OP units, which may be redeemed for cash or, at our option, common shares of Whitestone. The maximum aggregate number of common shares that may be issued under the 2008 Plan is increased upon each issuance of common shares by Whitestone so that at any time the maximum number of common shares that may be issued under the 2008 Plan shall equal 12.5% of the aggregate number of common shares of Whitestone and OP units issued and outstanding (other than common shares and/or OP units issued to or held by Whitestone). The Compensation Committee of our board of trustees administers the 2008 Plan, except with respect to awards to non-employee trustees, for which the 2008 Plan is administered by our board of trustees. The Compensation Committee is authorized to grant share options, including both incentive share options and non-qualified share options, as well as share appreciation rights, either with or without a related option. The Compensation Committee is also authorized to grant restricted common shares, restricted common share units, performance awards and other share-based awards. On April 2, 2014, the Compensation Committee approved the modification of the vesting provisions with respect to awards of an aggregate of 633,704 restricted common shares and restricted common share units for 51 of our employees. The modified time-based shares will vest annually in three equal installments. The modified performance-based restricted common shares and restricted common share units were modified to include performance-based vesting based on achievement of certain absolute financial goals, as well as one to two years of time-based vesting post achievement of financial goals. Continued employment is required through the applicable vesting date. Additionally, 2,049,116 restricted performance-based common share units were granted with the same vesting conditions as the modified performance-based grants described above. If the performance targets are not met prior to December 31, 2018, any unvested performance-based restricted common shares and restricted common share units will be forfeited. The Compensation Committee approved the grant of an aggregate of 320,000 and 143,000 time-based restricted common share units on June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, to James C. Mastandrea and David K. Holeman. A summary of the share-based incentive plan activity as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 is as follows: Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Non-vested at January 1, 2017 2,044,334 $ 14.48 Granted 85,650 12.90 Vested (399,005 ) 14.62 Forfeited (11,327 ) 14.18 Non-vested at June 30, 2017 1,719,652 $ 14.37 Available for grant at June 30, 2017 2,004,432 A summary of our non-vested and vested shares activity for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 is presented below: Shares Granted Shares Vested Non-Vested Shares Issued Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Vested Shares Total Vest-Date Fair Value (in thousands) Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 85,650 $ 12.90 (399,005 ) $ 5,832 Year Ended December 31, 2016 545,778 $ 14.85 (734,261 ) $ 10,577 Year Ended December 31, 2015 327,122 $ 13.49 (348,786 ) $ 4,969 Year Ended December 31, 2014 2,058,930 $ 14.40 (133,774 ) $ 1,721 Total compensation recognized in earnings for share-based payments was $2,390,000 and $1,819,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $4,841,000 and $3,844,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Based on our current financial projections, we expect approximately 82% of the unvested awards to vest over the next 21 months. As of June 30, 2017 , there was approximately $3.1 million in unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding non-vested performance-based shares, which are expected to vest over a period of 21 months and approximately $3.8 million in unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding non-vested time-based shares, which are expected to be recognized over a period of approximately nine months beginning on July 1, 2017. We expect to record approximately $9.1 million in non-cash share-based compensation expense in 2017 and $2.8 million subsequent to 2017. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost is expected to vest over a weighted average period of 14 months. The dilutive impact of the performance-based shares will be included in the denominator of the earnings per share calculation beginning in the period that the performance conditions are expected to be met. At our annual meeting of shareholders on May 11, 2017, our shareholders voted to approve the 2018 Long-Term Equity Incentive Ownership Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 3,433,831 common shares and OP units pursuant to awards under the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan will become effective on July 30, 2018, which is the day after the 2008 Plan expires. |

BLVD Place, a 216,944 square foot property, was 99% leased at the time of purchase and is located in Houston, Texas. Included in the purchase of BLVD Place is approximately 1.43 acres of developable land. On May 3, 2017, we acquired Eldorado Plaza, a property that meets our Community Centered Property™ strategy, for $46.6 million in cash and net prorations using borrowings under our Facility.

La Mirada, a 147,209 square foot property, was 90% leased at the time of purchase. Seville, a 90,042 square foot property, was 88% leased at the time of purchase. Both properties are located in Scottsdale, Arizona. Unaudited pro forma financial information. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated operating data is presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , as if the acquisition of BLVD Place had occurred on January 1, 2016. Revenue and net income attributable to BLVD Place of $1.5 million and $0.9 million , respectively, have been included in our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 . The related acquisition expenses of $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 have been reflected as a pro forma expense as of January 1, 2016.

The sale was structured as a like-kind exchange within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Code and sales proceeds were deposited into a Section 1031 exchange escrow account with a qualified intermediary and subsequently distributed for general corporate purposes. We have not included Brookhill in discontinued operations as it did not meet the definition of discontinued operations. On February 17, 2016, we completed the sale of approximately 0.5 acres of our 4.5 acre Pinnacle Phase II development parcel, located in Scottsdale, Arizona, for $1.1 million .

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and possess full legal control and authority over the operations of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we owned a majority of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Consequently, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Operating Partnership. We also consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”) when we are determined to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Our determination of the primary beneficiary considers all relationships between us and the VIE, including management and other contractual agreements. See Note 6 for additional disclosure on our VIE. Noncontrolling interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represents the share of equity and earnings of the Operating Partnership allocable to holders of partnership interests other than us. Net income or loss is allocated to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted-average percentage ownership of the Operating Partnership during the period. Issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest in Whitestone (the “common shares”) and units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership that are convertible into cash or, at our option, common shares on a one -for- one basis (the “OP units”) changes the percentage of ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interests and Whitestone. |
Basis of Accounting | Basis of Accounting. Our financial records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates that we use include the estimated fair values of properties acquired, the estimated useful lives for depreciable and amortizable assets and costs, the estimated allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated fair value of interest rate swaps and the estimates supporting our impairment analysis for the carrying values of our real estate assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications. We have reclassified certain prior period amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to be consistent with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, total assets, total liabilities or equity. |
Marketable Securities | Marketable Securities. We classify our existing marketable equity securities as available-for-sale in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (“FASB”) Investments-Debt and Equity Securities guidance. These securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The fair value of the marketable securities is determined using Level 1 inputs under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” Level 1 inputs represent quoted prices available in an active market for identical investments as of the reporting date. Gains and losses on securities sold are based on the specific identification method, and are reported as a component of interest, dividend and other investment income. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash. We classify all cash pledged as collateral to secure certain obligations and all cash whose use is limited as restricted cash. During 2015, pursuant to the terms of our $15.1 million 4.99% Note, due January 6, 2024 (See Note 7), which is collateralized by our Anthem Marketplace property, we were required by the lenders thereunder to establish a cash management account controlled by the lenders to collect all amounts generated by our Anthem Marketplace property in order to collateralize such promissory note. As a result, these amounts are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows under cash flows from financing activities as change in restricted cash. |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. We utilize derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment, and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instruments. We recognize our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges with the effective portion of the changes in fair value recorded in comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of a cash flow hedges' change in fair value is recorded immediately into earnings. Our cash flow hedges are determined using Level 2 inputs under ASC 820. Level 2 inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable. As of June 30, 2017 , we consider our cash flow hedges to be highly effective. |
Development Properties | Development Properties. Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost. Expenditures related to the development of real estate are carried at cost which includes capitalized carrying charges and development costs. Carrying charges (interest, real estate taxes, loan fees, and direct and indirect development costs related to buildings under construction), are capitalized as part of construction in progress. The capitalization of such costs ceases when the property, or any completed portion, becomes available for occupancy. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 , approximately $84,000 and $64,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized, and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 , approximately $156,000 and $93,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 , approximately $105,000 and $16,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized, and for the six months ended June 30, 2016 , approximately $132,000 and $32,000 in interest expense and real estate taxes, respectively, were capitalized. |
Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations | Real Estate Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. We consider a commercial property to be held for sale when it meets all of the criteria established under ASC 205, “Presentation of Financial Statements.” For commercial properties classified as held for sale, assets and liabilities are presented separately for all periods presented. In accordance with ASC 205, a discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity. A disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component of an entity or group of components of an entity is classified as held for sale, disposed of by sale or disposed of other than by sale, respectively. In addition, ASC 205 requires us to provide additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not meet the criteria for a discontinued operation. |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation. From time to time, we award nonvested restricted common share awards or restricted common share unit awards, which may be converted into common shares, to executive officers and employees under our 2008 Long-Term Equity Incentive Ownership Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The vast majority of the awarded shares and units vest when certain performance conditions are met. We recognize compensation expense when achievement of the performance conditions is probable based on management's most recent estimates using the fair value of the shares as of the grant date. We recognized $2,390,000 and $1,819,000 in share-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and we recognized $4,841,000 and $3,844,000 in share-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. |
Noncontrolling Interests | Noncontrolling Interests. Noncontrolling interests is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable to a parent. The ownership interests not held by the parent are considered noncontrolling interests. Accordingly, we have reported noncontrolling interests in equity on the consolidated balance sheets but separate from Whitestone's equity. On the consolidated statements of operations, subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amount, including both the amount attributable to Whitestone and noncontrolling interests. The consolidated statement of changes in equity is included for quarterly financial statements, including beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for shareholders' equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements . In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged with the exception of changes related to costs which qualify as initial direct costs. The guidance will also require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the timing, amount and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance will be effective for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance simplifying the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, balance sheet classification of awards and the classification on the statement of cash flows. We have adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The main provision regarding excess tax benefits did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements due to our status as a REIT for taxation purposes. We have elected to continue estimating the number of shares expected to vest in order to determine compensation cost, and we will continue to classify cash paid by us for employee taxes when common shares were repurchased to cover minimum statutory requirements as financing activity. In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance clarifying the scope of asset derecognition guidance, adds guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets and clarifies recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. This guidance will become effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and its impact on our consolidated financial statements. |
