Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business and Organization | Business and Organization Gramercy Property Trust, or the Company or Gramercy, a Maryland real estate investment trust, or REIT, is a leading global investor and asset manager of commercial real estate. Gramercy specializes in acquiring and managing single-tenant, net leased industrial, office, and specialty properties. The Company focuses on income producing properties leased to high quality tenants in major markets in the United States and Europe. Gramercy earns revenues primarily through three sources: (i) rental revenues on properties that it owns in the United States, (ii) asset management revenues on properties owned by third parties in the United States and Europe and (iii) pro-rata rental revenues on its unconsolidated equity investments in the United States, Europe, and Asia. On December 17, 2015, Chambers Street Properties, or Chambers, a Maryland REIT, completed a merger, or the Merger, with Gramercy Property Trust Inc., or Legacy Gramercy, a Maryland corporation, pursuant to which Legacy Gramercy stockholders received 3.1898 common shares of beneficial interest of Chambers for each share of common stock of Legacy Gramercy held. Following the Merger, Chambers changed its name to “Gramercy Property Trust” and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, using the “GPT” stock symbol. In the Merger, Chambers was the legal acquirer and Legacy Gramercy was the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Thus, the financial information set forth herein subsequent to the close of the Merger on December 17, 2015 reflects results of the combined company, and financial information prior to the close of the Merger reflects Legacy Gramercy results. For this reason, period to period comparisons may not be meaningful. Refer to Note 4 for additional information on the Merger. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “Company,” “Gramercy,” “we,” “our,” and “us” mean Legacy Gramercy and one or more of the Company’s subsidiaries for the period prior to the Merger closing and Gramercy Property Trust and one or more of the Company’s subsidiaries for periods following the Merger closing. As of March 31, 2016 , the Company owns, either directly or in an unconsolidated equity investment, a portfolio of 316 industrial, office, and specialty properties with 98.7% occupancy. Tenants include Bank of America, N.A., Healthy Way of Life II, LLC (d.b.a Life Time Fitness), Amazon.com, Inc., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Nuance Communications, Inc. and others. As of March 31, 2016 , the Company’s asset management business, which operates under the name Gramercy Asset Management, manages for third-parties approximately $900,000 of commercial real estate assets, including approximately $459,000 of assets in Europe. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company acquired three properties aggregating 621,646 square feet in two separate transactions for a total purchase price of approximately $52,750 . During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company sold nine properties aggregating 2,095,194 square feet for total gross proceeds of approximately $531,500 . As of March 31, 2016 , the Company’s wholly-owned portfolio of net leased properties is summarized as follows: Property Type Number of Properties Rentable Square Feet Occupancy Industrial 154 34,384,245 98.4 % Office 113 9,865,700 98.8 % Specialty retail 9 1,187,258 100.0 % Total 276 45,437,203 98.5 % The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code or IRC, and generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes to the extent it distributes its taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. The Company has in the past established, and may in the future establish taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, to effect various taxable transactions. Those TRSs would incur U.S. federal, state and local taxes on the taxable income from their activities. The Company’s operating partnership, GPT Operating Partnership LP, or the Operating Partnership, indirectly owns (i) all of the Company’s consolidated real estate investments, (ii) the Company’s interests in unconsolidated investments and (iii) the entities, primarily a TRS, that conduct the Company’s third-party asset management operations. The Company is the sole general partner and 100% owner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership is the 100% owner of all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, except that, as of March 31, 2016 , third-party holders of limited partnership interests in Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership, the entity that owns substantially all of Legacy Gramercy’s assets and investments, owned approximately 0.32% of the beneficial interest of the Company. These interests are referred to as the noncontrolling interests in Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership. See Note 12 fo r more information on the Company’s noncontrolling interests. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Quarterly Presentation The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. The 2016 operating results for the period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2015 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements at that date. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuances Costs, which requires the Company to reclassify debt financing costs, which were previously accounted for on the deferred costs line within the asset section, and present them in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the corresponding debt liability, with the exception of deferred financing costs associated with the credit facility which remain in deferred costs in the asset section on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred financing costs totaling $6,389 have been reclassified in the December 31, 2015 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet from the deferred costs line and netted against the corresponding debt liability. See “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” below for further discussion of the new accounting guidance for deferred financing costs. Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company’s accounts and those of the Company’s subsidiaries which are wholly-owned or controlled by the Company, or entities which are variable interest entities, or VIEs, in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party that absorbs a majority of the VIE’s anticipated losses and/or a majority of the expected returns. The Company has evaluated its investments for potential classification as variable interests by evaluating the sufficiency of each entity’s equity investment at risk to absorb losses. Entities which the Company does not control and are considered VIEs, but where the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The equity interests of other limited partners in the Company’s operating partnerships are reflected as noncontrolling interests. Real Estate Investments The Company records acquired real estate investments as business combinations when the real estate is occupied, at least in part, at acquisition. Costs directly related to the acquisition of such investments are expensed as incurred. The Company allocates the purchase price of real estate to land, building, improvements and intangibles, such as the value of above- and below-market leases, and origination costs associated with the in-place leases at the acquisition date. The values of the above- and below-market leases are amortized and recorded as either an increase, in the case of below-market leases, or a decrease, in the case of above-market leases, to rental revenue over the remaining term of the associated lease. The values associated with in-place leases are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining term of the associated lease. The Company assesses the fair value of the leases at acquisition based upon estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. Additionally, for transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase at the time of acquisition. Acquired real estate investments involving sale-leasebacks that have newly-originated leases are recorded as asset acquisitions and accordingly, transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition are capitalized. Acquired real estate investments which are under construction are considered build-to-suit transactions and other acquired real estate investments that do not meet the definition of a business combination are recorded at cost. In build-to-suit transactions, the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provides funds to a tenant to develop a property. The Company capitalizes the funds provided to the developer/tenant and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period. Certain improvements are capitalized when they are determined to increase the useful life of the building. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life at acquisition of the capitalized item or 40 years for buildings, five to ten years for building equipment and fixtures, and the lesser of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. In leasing space, the Company may provide funding to the lessee through a tenant allowance. If the Company is considered the owner of the leasehold improvements constructed using a tenant allowance, the Company capitalizes the amount of the allowance and depreciates it over the shorter of the useful life of the leasehold improvements or the lease term. If the tenant allowance represents a payment for a purpose other than funding leasehold improvements, or if the Company is not considered the owner of the improvements for accounting purposes, the allowance is considered to be a lease incentive and is recognized over the lease term as a reduction of rental revenue. The Company also reviews the recoverability of the property’s carrying value when circumstances indicate a possible impairment of the value of a property, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. If management determines impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used and for assets held for sale, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value less estimated cost of disposal. The estimated fair value of the asset becomes its new cost basis and if the asset is to be held and used, the new cost basis will be depreciated or amortized over its remaining useful life. Intangible Assets and Liabilities The Company follows the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets include land, buildings and improvements on an as-if vacant basis and identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquired leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and above-market and below-market ground rent intangibles. The above- and below-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of and increase to rental revenue, respectively, over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The value of in-place leases is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases. To the extent acquired leases contain fixed rate renewal options that are below-market and determined to be material, the Company amortizes such below-market lease value into rental revenue over the renewal period. If a tenant terminates its lease prior to its contractual expiration and no future rental payments will be received, any unamortized balance of the market lease intangibles will be written off to rental revenue and any unamortized balance of the in-place lease intangibles will be written off to depreciation and amortization expense. The above- and below-market ground rent intangible values are amortized as a reduction of and increase to rent expense, respectively, over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. If the Company terminates its lease prior to its contractual expiration and no future rent payments will be paid, any unamortized balance of the ground rent intangibles will be written off to rent expense. Intangible assets and liabilities consist of the following: March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Intangible assets: In-place leases, net of accumulated amortization of $75,613 and $49,125 $ 550,230 $ 644,540 Above-market leases, net of accumulated amortization of $8,879 and $5,051 75,614 94,202 Below-market ground rent, net of accumulated amortization of $179 and $147 5,204 5,236 Amounts related to assets held for sale, net of accumulated amortization of $0 — (61,804 ) Total intangible assets $ 631,048 $ 682,174 Intangible liabilities: Below-market leases, net of accumulated amortization of $21,068 and $16,934 $ 234,617 $ 255,452 Above-market ground rent, net of accumulated amortization of $172 and $149 3,498 3,522 Amounts related to liabilities of assets held for sale, net of accumulated amortization of $0 — (16,518 ) Total intangible liabilities $ 238,115 $ 242,456 The following table provides the weighted-average amortization period as of March 31, 2016 for intangible assets and liabilities and the projected amortization expense for the next five years. Weighted-Average Amortization Period April 1 to December 31, 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 In-place leases 9.5 $ 75,472 $ 86,996 $ 74,517 $ 61,701 $ 49,432 Total to be included in depreciation and amortization expense $ 75,472 $ 86,996 $ 74,517 $ 61,701 $ 49,432 Above-market lease assets 7.5 $ 11,295 $ 13,173 $ 11,553 $ 9,987 $ 7,557 Below-market lease liabilities 20.3 (12,380 ) (13,071 ) (12,768 ) (12,517 ) (12,250 ) Total to be included in rental revenue $ (1,085 ) $ 102 $ (1,215 ) $ (2,530 ) $ (4,693 ) Below-market ground rent 42.1 $ 95 $ 127 $ 127 $ 127 $ 127 Above-market ground rent 37.3 (70 ) (94 ) (94 ) (94 ) (94 ) Total to be included in property operating expense $ 25 $ 33 $ 33 $ 33 $ 33 The Company recorded $27,560 and $7,997 of amortization of in-place lease intangible assets as part of depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The Company recorded $181 and $3,945 of amortization of market lease intangible assets and liabilities as an increase (decrease) to rental revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. The Company recorded $9 and $39 of amortization of ground rent intangible assets and liabilities as a reduction to other property operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. Goodwill Goodwill represents the fair value of the collaboration expected to be achieved upon consummation of a business combination and is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net assets acquired at acquisition date. The Company initially recognized goodwill of $3,887 related to the acquisition of Gramercy Europe Asset Management, however during the second quarter of 2015, as a result of finalization of the purchase price allocation for the acquisition, the Company decreased the amount allocated to goodwill by $85 and thus the final purchase price allocation to goodwill as a result of the acquisition was $3,802 . The adjustment to goodwill for the finalized purchase price was primarily related to a reduction in the contract intangible value as well as an increase in the accrued income recorded for incentive fees. The carrying value of goodwill is adjusted each reporting period for the effect of foreign currency translation adjustments. The carrying value of goodwill at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $3,477 and $3,568 , respectively. The Company’s goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company takes a qualitative approach to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test. The Company did not record any impairment on its goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015 . Unconsolidated Equity Investments The Company accounts for substantially all of its unconsolidated equity investments under the equity method of accounting since it exercises significant influence, but does not unilaterally control the entities, and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. In unconsolidated equity investments, the rights of the other investors are protective and participating. Unless the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, these rights preclude it from consolidating the investments. The investments are recorded initially at cost as unconsolidated equity investments, as applicable, and subsequently are adjusted for equity interest in net income (loss) and cash contributions and distributions. The amount of the investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is evaluated for impairment at each reporting period. None of the unconsolidated equity investment debt is recourse to the Company. Transactions with unconsolidated equity method entities are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s ownership in each such entity. Accordingly, the Company’s share of net income (loss) of these equity method entities is included in consolidated net income (loss). The Company’s 5.07% investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia, the Company’s unconsolidated equity investment described more in Note 5, is presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value. CBRE Strategic Partners Asia is an investment company that accounts for its investments at fair value with changes in the fair value of the investments recorded in the statement of operations. See the “Fair Value Measurements” section of Note 2 as well as Note 9 , “ Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion of the fair value accounting methodology used for CBRE Strategic Partners Asia. Carrying values of the Company’s unconsolidated equity investments were $527,269 and $580,000 at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Restricted Cash The Company had restricted cash of $166,552 and $17,354 at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which primarily consists of proceeds from property sales held by qualified intermediaries to be used for tax-deferred, like-kind exchanges under IRC Section 1031, as well as reserves for certain capital improvements, leasing, interest and real estate tax and insurance payments as required by certain mortgage loan obligations. Variable Interest Entities During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which modified the analysis it must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The Company’s operating partnerships, including both the GPT Operating Partnership, or the Operating Partnership, and Gramercy Operating Partnership, which is Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership, are VIEs under the revised guidance and the Company is the primary beneficiary of each of them, because it holds majority ownership and exercises control over every aspect of the partnerships’ operations. Because the operating partnerships were already consolidated in the Company’s balance sheets, the revised guidance has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The assets and liabilities of the Company and its operating partnerships are substantially the same, as the Company does not have any significant assets other than its investments in the operating partnerships. All of the Company's debt is also an obligation of the operating partnerships. There were no other legal entities qualifying under the scope of the revised guidance that were consolidated as a result of the adoption. In addition, there were no voting interest entities under prior existing guidance determined to be VIEs under the revised guidance. The Company had four consolidated VIEs as of March 31, 2016 and two consolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2015 . The Company had four unconsolidated VIEs as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 . The following is a summary of the Company’s involvement with VIEs as of March 31, 2016 : Company carrying value-assets Company carrying value-liabilities Face value of assets held by the VIEs Face value of liabilities issued by the VIEs Assets Consolidated VIEs Operating partnerships $ 5,348,309 $ 2,488,630 $ 5,348,309 $ 2,488,630 Proportion Foods $ 8,329 $ 550 $ 8,329 $ 8,820 Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Manager) $ 276 $ 1,029 $ 276 $ 1,029 Unconsolidated VIEs Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Carry Co.) $ — $ — $ 11 $ 28 Retained CDO Bonds $ 8,786 $ — $ 1,202,885 $ 1,197,539 The following is a summary of the Company’s involvement with VIEs as of December 31, 2015 : Company carrying value-assets Company carrying value-liabilities Face value of assets held by the VIEs Face value of liabilities issued by the VIEs Assets Consolidated VIEs Proportion Foods $ 7,949 $ 16 $ 7,949 $ 8,183 Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Manager) $ 334 $ 832 $ 334 $ 832 Unconsolidated VIEs Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Carry Co.) $ — $ — $ 11 $ 16 Retained CDO Bonds $ 7,471 $ — $ 1,382,373 $ 1,282,583 Consol idated VIEs Proportion Foods In December 2015, the Company entered into a non-recourse financing arrangement with Big Proportion Austin LLC, or BIG, for a build-to-suit industrial property in Round Rock, Texas, or Proportion Foods. Concurrently, the Company entered into a forward purchase agreement with BIG, pursuant to which the Company will acquire the property, which is 100% leased to Proportion Foods, upon substantial completion of the facility’s development. The Company has determined that Proportion Foods is a VIE, as the equity holders of the entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. The Company controls the activities that most significantly affect the economic outcome of Proportion Foods through its financing arrangement to fund the property’s development and its forward purchase agreement with BIG. As such, the Company has concluded that it is the entity’s primary beneficiary and has consolidated the VIE. The Company has a note receivable from BIG related to the financing arrangement, which is a note payable for BIG and thus eliminates upon consolidation of the VIE. The construction of the facility on the property is expected to be complete in December 2016 and the Company has committed $24,950 in financing for the construction. BIG is responsible for funding in excess of the $24,950 mortgage note. As of March 31, 2016 , the Company has funded $8,270 for the property. Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Manager) In connection with the Company’s December 2014 investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, the Company acquired equity interests in the entity, hereinafter European Fund Manager, which provides investment and asset management services to Gramercy European Property Fund. The Company has determined that European Fund Manager is a VIE, as the equity holders of that entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. As Gramercy Europe Asset Management, through an investment advisory agreement with the VIE, controls the activities that most significantly affect the economic outcome of European Fund Manager, the Company has concluded that it is the entity’s primary beneficiary and has consolidated the VIE. European Fund Manager is expected to generate net cash inflows for the Company in the form of management fees in the future, however, if the VIE’s cash inflows are not sufficient to cover its obligations, the Company may provide financial support for the VIE. Unconsolidated VIEs Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Carry Co.) In connection with the Company’s December 2014 investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, the Company acquired equity interests in the entity, hereinafter European Fund Carry Co., entitled to receive certain preferential distributions, if any, made from time-to-time by Gramercy European Property Fund. The Company has determined that European Fund Carry Co. is a VIE, as the equity holders of that entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. Decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of European Fund Carry Co. are decided by a majority vote of that VIE’s shareholders. As such, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the VIE and has accounted for it as an equity investment. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , European Fund Carry Co. had net assets of $(17) and $(5) . Investment in Retained CDO Bonds The Retained CDO Bonds are non-investment grade subordinate bonds, preferred shares and ordinary shares of three collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs, which the Company recognized subsequent to the disposal of its Gramercy Finance segment, or Gramercy Finance, and exit from the commercial real estate finance business in March 2013. The Company is not obligated to provide any financial support to these CDOs. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to its interest in the Retained CDO Bonds and the Company does not control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company had one and six assets classified as held for sale, respectively, which represent legacy Chambers properties that qualified as held for sale as of the closing date of the Merger and are included within discontinued operations, in accordance with ASC 360, as these assets acquired in the Merger do not align with the Company’s investment strategy and therefore will be sold. Real estate investments to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value, less costs to sell. Once an asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation and amortization expense is no longer recorded. Refer to Note 3 for further information on the Company’s assets held for sale and discontinued operations. Tenant and Other Receivables Tenant and other receivables are derived from management fees, rental revenue and tenant reimbursements. Management fees, including incentive management fees, are recognized as earned in accordance with the terms of the management agreements. The management agreements may contain provisions for fees related to dispositions, administration of the assets including fees related to accounting, valuation and legal services, and management of capital improvements or projects on the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recorded on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Since many leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable, and include in revenues, unbilled rent receivables that will only be received if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. Tenant and other receivables also include receivables related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance expenses and certain other recoverable expenses that are recognized as revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. Tenant and other receivables are recorded net of the allowances for doubtful accounts, which as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $261 and $204 , respectively. The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent, tenant reimbursements, and management fees, including incentive fees, and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant or asset management clients’ payment history, the financial condition of the tenant or asset management client, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant or asset management client operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property or asset management client is located. In the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, the Company increases the allowance for doubtful accounts or records a direct write-off of the receivable. Deferred Costs Deferred costs consist of deferred financing costs, deferred acquisition costs, and deferred leasing costs. Deferred costs are presented net of accumulated amortization. The Company’s deferred financing costs are comprised of costs associated with the Company’s unsecured credit facilities and include commitment fees, issuance costs, and legal and other third-party costs associated with obtaining the related financing. Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line or effective interest basis over the contractual terms of the respective agreements and the amortization is reflected as interest expense. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to the presentation of deferred financing costs on the balance sheet and reclassified amounts from the deferred costs line pertaining to debt arrangements other than its unsecured credit facilities, that were within the asset section, to instead be netted against the corresponding debt liability for all periods presented. See “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” below for further discussion of the new accounting guidance for deferred financing costs. The Company’s deferred acquisition costs consist primarily of lease inducement fees paid to secure acquisitions and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term as a reduction from rental revenue. The Company’s deferred leasing costs include direct costs, such as lease commissions, incurred to initiate and renew operating leases and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term as a reduction from rental revenue. Fair Value Measurements At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company measured its Retained CDO Bonds, derivative instruments, and CBRE Strategic Partners Asia on a recurring basis and measured its real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing on a non-recurring basis. ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” among other things, establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring financial instruments and other assets and liabilities at fair value. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of these assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, or an exit price. The level of pricing observability generally correlates to the degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities. The investment manager of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia applies valuation techniques for the Company’s investment carried at fair value based upon the application of the income approach, the direct market comparison approach, the replacement cost approach or third-party appraisals to the underlying assets held in the unconsolidated entity in determining the net asset value attributable to the Company’s ownership interest therein. The three broad levels defined are as follows: Level I – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities that have quoted prices that are available in liquid markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities for which quoted prices are available but which are traded less frequently and instruments that are measured at fair value using management’s judgment, where the inputs into the determination of fair value can be directly observed. Level III – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These financial instruments do not have active markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment and assumptions. For a further discussion regarding fair value measurements see Note 9 , “Fair Value Measurements.” Revenue Recognition Real Estate Investments Rental revenue from leases on real estate investments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due. The excess of rental revenue recognized over the amounts contractually due according to the underlying leases are included in deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For leases on properties that are under construction at the time of acquisition, the Company begins recognition of rental revenue upon completion of construction of the leased asset and delivery of the leased asset to the tenant. The Company’s lease agreements with tenants also generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse the Company for real estate taxes, insurance costs, common area maintenance costs, and other property-related expenses. Under lease arrangements in which the Company is the primary obligor for these expenses, such amounts are recognized as both revenues and operating expenses for the Company. Under lease arrangements in which the tenant pays these expenses directly, such amounts are not included in revenues or expenses. These reimbursement amounts are recognized in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. The Company recognizes sales of real estate properties only upon closing. Payments received from purchasers prior to closing are recorded as deposits. Profit on real estate sold is recognized using the full accrual method upon closing when the collectability of the sale price is reasonably assured and the Company is not obligated to perform significant activities after the sale. Profit may be deferred in whole or part until the sale meets the requirements of profit recognition on sale of real estate. Asset Management Business The Company’s asset and property management agreements may contain provisions for fees related to dispositions, administration of the assets including fees related to accounting, valuation and legal services, and management of capital improvements or projects on the underlying assets. The Company recognizes revenue for fees pursuant to its management agreements in the period in which they are earned. Management fees received prior to the date earned are included in deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of the Company’s asset management contracts include provisions that may allow it to earn additional fees, generally described as incentive fees or profit participation intere |

Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale, and Discontinued Operations | Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale, and Discontinued Operations Real Estate Dispositions During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company sold nine properties. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company did not sell any properties. The nine property sales in 2016 consisted of all office properties that comprised an aggregate 2,095,194 square feet and generated gross proceeds of $531,500 . The Company did not recognize any gains or impairments on disposals during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . Six of the property sales in 2016 were structured as like-kind exchanges within the meaning of Section 1031 of the IRC. As a result of the sales, the Company deposited $175,808 of the total sales proceeds into an IRC Section 1031 exchange escrow account with a qualified intermediary. The Company then used $30,301 of these funds as consideration for one property acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . Five of the properties sold during the three months ended March 31, 2016 , which were sold for gross proceeds of $386,000 , represent properties assumed in the Merger that were designated as held for sale at the time of Merger closing, thus they are included in discontinued operations for all periods presented. Four of the properties sold during the three months ended March 31, 2016 , which were sold for gross proceeds of $145,500 , were also assumed in the Merger and were classified as held for sale at the time of disposition, however they are not included in discontinued operations as they did not meet the definition of discontinued operations. Assets Held for Sale The Company separately classifies properties held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company had one and six assets classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. In the normal course of business the Company identifies non-strategic assets for sale. Changes in the market may compel the Company to decide to classify a property held for sale or classify a property that was designated as held for sale back to held for investment. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Company did not reclassify any properties previously identified as held for sale to held for investment. The following table summarizes the assets held for sale and liabilities related to the assets held for sale as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 : Assets held for sale March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Real estate investments $ 10,522 $ 348,582 Acquired lease assets — 61,804 Other assets 26 10,099 Total assets 10,548 420,485 Liabilities related to assets held for sale Mortgage notes payable, net — 260,704 Below-market lease liabilities — 16,518 Other liabilities 376 14,142 Total liabilities 376 291,364 Net assets held for sale $ 10,172 $ 129,121 Discontinued Operations The following operating results for Gramercy Finance, the assets previously sold and the assets that were assumed in the Merger and simultaneously designated as held for sale for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are included in discontinued operations for all periods presented: Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 2015 Operating Results: Revenues $ 5,857 $ (100 ) Operating expenses (2,180 ) 210 General and administrative expense (12 ) (172 ) Interest expense (955 ) — Gain on extinguishment of debt 1,930 — Net income (loss) from discontinued operations $ 4,640 $ (62 ) Discontinued operations have not been segregated in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company recorded revenues and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $3,446 and $472 , respectively, related to its 27 real estate acquisitions during the period. Property Purchase Price Allocations The Company is currently analyzing the fair value of the lease and real estate assets of ten of its property investments acquired in 2015, and accordingly, the purchase price allocations are preliminary and subject to change. The initial recording of the assets is summarized as follows: Preliminary Allocations recorded Period of Acquisition Number of Acquisitions Real Estate Assets Intangible Assets Intangible Liabilities Year Ended December 31, 2015 (1) 10 $ 259,093 $ — $ — (1) Allocations exclude the 104 properties acquired as part of the Merger Portfolio, which are separately disclosed below in the section, “Merger with Chambers.” Additionally, allocations include real estate assets of $7,947 for Proportion Foods, a consolidated VIE. Refer to Note 2 for more information on Proportion Foods. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 , the Company finalized the purchase price allocations for five and 141 properties acquired in prior periods, respectively, for which the Company had recorded preliminary purchase price allocations at the time of acquisition. The aggregate changes from the preliminary purchase price allocations to the finalized purchase price allocations, in accordance with ASU 2015-16, which the Company adopted in the third quarter of 2015, are shown in the table below: Preliminary Allocations recorded Finalized Allocations recorded Period Finalized Number of Acquisitions Real Estate Assets Intangible Assets Intangible Liabilities Real Estate Assets Intangible Assets Intangible Liabilities Increase (Decrease) to Rental Revenue (Increase) Decrease to Depreciation and Amortization Expense Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 5 $ 63,309 $ 2,084 $ 184 $ 56,656 $ 8,553 $ — $ (18 ) $ 13 Year Ended December 31, 2015 (1) 141 $ 1,373,360 $ 320,066 $ 81,961 $ 1,535,763 $ 302,083 $ 226,381 $ 2,307 $ (205 ) (1) Allocations for the year ended December 31, 2015 include the 67 properties acquired as part of the Bank of America Portfolio. Pro Forma The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the Company’s combined results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 as though the acquisitions closed during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were completed on January 1, 2015. The supplemental pro forma operating data is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been assuming the transaction had been completed as set forth above, nor do they purport to represent the Company’s results of operations for future periods. The table includes pro forma operating results for the assets acquired in the Merger.

Merger with Chambers As described in Note 1, on December 17, 2015, the Company completed a merger transaction in which Legacy Gramercy merged with and into a subsidiary of Chambers. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, with Chambers as the legal acquirer and Legacy Gramercy as the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. At Merger closing, each share of Legacy Gramercy common stock, par value $0.001 per share, that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, was canceled and converted into the right to receive 3.1898 common shares, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. Because the Merger is accounted for as a reverse acquisition, consideration for the Merger is computed as if Legacy Gramercy had issued its equity interests to Chambers shareholders. Consideration for the Merger was $1,829,241 , based on Legacy Gramercy’s closing stock price of $24.63 on December 17, 2015, the number of Chambers common shares outstanding at the close of the Merger, and the Merger Agreement exchange ratio of 3.1898 set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 1, 2015, related to the Merger, or the Merger Agreement. The Company is in the process of completing the allocation of the purchase price for the Merger, which the Company expects to finalize later this year. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation, which represents the current best estimate of acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed: Assets Investments: Land $ 261,514 Buildings and improvements 1,651,462 Net investments 1,912,976 Cash and cash equivalents 24,687 Restricted cash 8,990 Unconsolidated equity investments 556,232 Tenant and other receivables, net 10,885 Acquired lease assets 387,988 Deferred costs and other assets 5,002 Assets held for sale $ 418,115 Total assets $ 3,324,875 Liabilities Mortgage notes payable $ 218,945 Revolving credit facilities and term loans 860,000 Below-market lease liabilities 40,593 Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities 87,106 Liabilities related to assets held for sale 288,990 Total liabilities $ 1,495,634 Estimated fair value of net assets acquired $ 1,829,241 The final allocation of the purchase price will be based on the Company’s assessment of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities and may differ significantly from the estimated preliminary allocation. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation for Chambers as a result of further evaluation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The adjustments recorded resulted in a decrease to the allocation to assets acquired by $328 and a decrease to the allocation to liabilities assumed by $328 . The preliminary purchase price allocation adjustments also resulted in an increase in net income of $7 to record adjustments to depreciation and amortization expense related to the adjustments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Acquisition of Gramercy Europe Asset Management On December 19, 2014, the Company acquired ThreadGreen Europe Limited, a United Kingdom based property and asset management platform, which the Company subsequently renamed Gramercy Europe Limited, or Gramercy Europe Asset Management, for $3,755 and the issuance of 96,535 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $652 as of the date of closing. The Company accounted for the acquisition utilizing the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The Company initially recognized assets of $902 , liabilities of $398 , and goodwill of $3,887 , as well as a $16 realized foreign currency transaction loss related to the acquisition and during the second quarter of 2015, the Company finalized the purchase price allocation, which resulted in an increase to the allocation to assets by $190 , an increase to the allocation to liabilities by $105 , a decrease to goodwill by $85 , and a decrease to net income of $80 to record adjustments to amortization and incentive fees. The final allocation of the purchase price included assets of $1,092 , liabilities of $503 , and goodwill of $3,802 . Goodwill represents the fair value of the collaboration expected to be achieved upon consummation of a business combination and is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net assets acquired at acquisition date.

(8) During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to the presentation of deferred financing costs on the balance sheet and reclassified amounts from the deferred costs line to net against the liability for all periods presented, including for mortgage notes payable, as shown here. See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for further information. Unsecured Debt 2015 Credit Facility and Term Loans In December 2015, the Company entered into an agreement, or the Credit Agreement, for a new $1,900,000 credit facility, or the 2015 Credit Facility, consisting of an $850,000 senior unsecured revolving credit facility, or the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, and $1,050,000 term loan facility with JPMorgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith Incorporated and terminated Legacy Gramercy’s 2014 Credit Facility. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, consists of a $750,000 U.S. dollar revolving credit facility and a $100,000 multicurrency revolving credit facility. The 2015 Revolving Credit Facility matures in January 2020 , but may be extended for two additional six -month periods upon the payment of applicable fees and satisfaction of certain customary conditions. Borrowings under the multicurrency loan denominated in euros are designated as a non-derivative net investment hedge to mitigate the risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Refer to Note 10 , “Derivative and Non-Derivative Hedging Instruments,” for further information on the hedge. The term loan facility, or the 2015 Term Loan, consists of a $300,000 term loan facility that matures in January 2019 with one 12 -month extension option, or the 3 -Year Term Loan, and a $750,000 term loan facility that matures in January 2021 , or the 5 -Year Term Loan. Outstanding borrowings under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility incur interest at a floating rate based upon, at the Company’s option, either (i) adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.55% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings, or (ii) the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.55% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings. The Company is also required to pay quarterly in arrears a 0.125% to 0.30% facility fee, depending on the Company’s credit ratings, on the total commitments under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. Outstanding borrowings under the 2015 Term Loan incur interest at a floating rate based upon, at the Company’s option, either (i) adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.90% to 1.75% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings, or (ii) the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings. The alternate base rate is the greater of (x) the prime rate announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (y) 0.50% above the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (z) the adjusted LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00% . In December 2015, the Company also entered into a new $175,000 seven -year unsecured term loan with Capital One, N.A., or the 7-Year Term Loan, which matures in January 2023 . Outstanding borrowings under the 7-Year Term Loan incur interest at a floating rate based upon, at the Company’s option, either (i) adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.30% to 2.10% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings, or (iii) the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.30% to 1.10% , depending on the Company’s credit ratings. The alternate base rate is the greatest of (x) the prime rate announced by Capital One, (y) 0.50% above the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (z) the adjusted LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00% . These unsecured borrowing facilities include a series of financial and other covenants that the Company has to comply with in order to borrow under the facilities. The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the facilities as of March 31, 2016 . During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to the presentation of deferred financing costs on the balance sheet and reclassified amounts from the deferred costs line to net against the liability for all periods presented. Deferred financing costs associated with the Company’s credit facility remain in deferred costs on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for further information.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company discloses fair value information, whether or not recognized in the financial statements, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based upon the application of discount rates to estimated future cash flows based upon market yields or by using other valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments and other assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair value amounts. The following table presents the carrying value in the financial statements and approximate fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring and non-recurring basis at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 : March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Financial assets: Retained CDO Bonds (1) $ 8,786 $ 8,786 $ 7,471 $ 7,471 Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia $ 5,126 $ 5,126 $ 5,508 $ 5,508 Real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing (4) $ 10,522 $ 10,522 $ 393,984 $ 393,984 Financial liabilities: Derivative instruments $ 27,461 $ 27,461 $ 3,442 $ 3,442 Long-term debt Revolving credit facilities (2) $ 122,760 $ 123,294 $ 296,724 $ 297,394 3-Year Term Loan (2) $ 300,000 $ 300,304 $ 300,000 $ 300,349 5-Year Term Loan (2) $ 750,000 $ 751,223 $ 750,000 $ 751,304 7-Year Term Loan (2) $ 175,000 $ 175,024 $ 175,000 $ 175,338 Mortgage notes payable (2), (3) $ 480,222 $ 506,215 $ 770,293 $ 805,590 Senior Unsecured Notes (2) $ 150,000 $ 156,254 $ 100,000 $ 100,528 Exchangeable Senior Notes (2) $ 107,205 $ 117,069 $ 109,394 $ 115,524 (1) Retained CDO Bonds represent the CDOs’ subordinate bonds, preferred shares, and ordinary shares, which were retained subsequent to the disposal of Gramercy Finance and were previously eliminated in consolidation. (2) Long-term debt instruments are classified as Level III due to the significance of unobservable inputs which are based upon management assumptions. (3) Amounts include mortgage notes payable on assets held for sale as of December 31, 2015, which had total carrying value of $260,704 and total fair value of $263,308 as of December 31, 2015. There were no mortgage notes payable on assets held for sale as of March 31, 2016. (4) Amounts include one and six real estate investments as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, classified as held for sale at Merger closing, which are included in discontinued operations. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate the value: Cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest, and accounts payable: These balances in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reasonably approximate their fair values due to the short maturities of these items. Retained CDO Bonds: Non-investment grade, subordinate CDO bonds, preferred shares and ordinary shares are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value. The fair value is determined by an internally developed discounted cash flow model. Refer to Note 2 for more information on these instruments. Derivative instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments, which are primarily comprised of interest rate swap agreements, are carried at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based upon third-party valuations. Refer to Note 10 for more information on the derivative instruments. Mortgage notes payable, unsecured term loans, unsecured revolving credit facilities and senior unsecured notes : These instruments are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at amortized cost and not at fair value. The fair value of each instrument is estimated by a discounted cash flows model, using discount rates that best reflect current market rates for financings with similar characteristics and credit quality. Mortgage premiums and discounts are amortized to interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations using the effective interest method over the terms of the related notes. Refer to Note 6 for more information on these instruments. Exchangeable Senior Notes: The Exchangeable Senior Notes are presented at amortized cost on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The fair value is determined based upon a discounted cash-flow methodology using discount rates that best reflect current market rates for instruments with similar with characteristics and credit quality. Refer to Note 6 for more information on these instruments. CBRE Strategic Partners Asia: The Company’s unconsolidated equity investment, CBRE Strategic Partners Asia, is presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value. The investment manager of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia applies valuation techniques for the Company’s investment carried at fair value based upon the application of the income approach, the direct market comparison approach, the replacement cost approach or third-party appraisals to the underlying assets held in the unconsolidated entity in determining the net asset value attributable to the Company’s ownership interest therein. Refer to Note 2 and Note 5 for more information on these instruments. Real estate investments designated as held for sale at Merger closing: The Company designated six properties as held for sale at the closing of the Merger on December 17, 2015. There was one property in this classification as of March 31, 2016 and six properties as of December 31, 2015. These properties are reported at estimated fair value, less costs to sell and are included in discontinued operations. Refer to Note 2 and Note 3 for more information on these instruments. Disclosure about fair value measurements is based on pertinent information available to the Company at the reporting date. Although the Company is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the reasonable fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for the purpose of these financial statements since March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. The following discussion of fair value was determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets or liabilities. Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment and the Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and on a non-recurring basis are categorized in the table below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations. At March 31, 2016 Total Level I Level II Level III Financial Assets: Retained CDO Bonds: Non-investment grade, subordinate CDO bonds $ 8,786 $ — $ — $ 8,786 Marketable securities: Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia 5,126 — — 5,126 Real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing 10,522 — — 10,522 $ 24,434 $ — $ — $ 24,434 Financial Liabilities: Derivative instruments: Interest rate swaps $ 27,461 $ — $ — $ 27,461 $ 27,461 $ — $ — $ 27,461 At December 31, 2015 Total Level I Level II Level III Financial Assets: Retained CDO Bonds: Non-investment grade, subordinate CDO bonds $ 7,471 $ — $ — $ 7,471 Marketable securities: Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia 5,508 — — 5,508 Real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing 393,984 — — 393,984 $ 406,963 $ — $ — $ 406,963 Financial Liabilities: Derivative instruments: Interest rate swaps $ 3,442 $ — $ — $ 3,442 $ 3,442 $ — $ — $ 3,442 Derivative instruments: Interest rate swaps are valued with the assistance of a third-party derivative specialist, who uses a combination of observable market-based inputs, such as interest rate curves, and unobservable inputs which require significant judgment such as the credit valuation adjustments due to the risk of non-performance by both the Company and its counterparties. The most significant unobservable input in the fair valuation of derivative instruments is the credit valuation adjustment as it requires significant management judgment regarding changes in the credit risk of the Company or its counterparties, however the primary driver of the fair value of the interest rate swaps is the forward interest rate curve. Fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments were valued using a Black-Scholes model. Fair value of the Company’s embedded exchange option was determined using a probabilistic valuation model with the assistance of third-party valuation specialists. Total unrealized losses from derivatives for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were $(22,189) and $(2,132) , respectively, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Retained CDO Bonds : Retained CDO Bonds are valued on a recurring basis using an internally developed discounted cash flow model. Management estimates the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected and applies a discount rate equal to the yield that the Company would expect to pay for similar securities with similar risks at the valuation date. Future expected cash flows generated by management require significant assumptions and judgment regarding the expected resolution of the underlying collateral, which includes loans and other lending investments, real estate investments, and collateralized mortgage backed securities. The resolution of the underlying collateral requires further management assumptions regarding capitalization rates, lease-up periods, future occupancy rates, market rental rates, holding periods, capital improvements, net property operating income, timing of workouts and recoveries, loan loss severities and other factors. The models are most sensitive to the unobservable inputs such as the timing of a loan default or property sale and the severity of loan losses. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation as well as any change in the expected timing of those inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Due to the inherent uncertainty in the determination of fair value, the Company has designated its Retained CDO Bonds as Level III. Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia: The Company’s investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia is based on the Level III valuation inputs applied by the investment manager of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia, utilizing a mix of different approaches for valuing the underlying real estate related investments within the investment company. The approaches include the income approach, direct market comparison approach and the replacement cost approach for newer properties. For investments owned more than one year, except for investments under construction or incurring significant renovation, CBRE Strategic Partners Asia obtains a third-party appraisal. For investments in real estate under construction or incurring significant renovation, the valuation analysis is prepared by the investment manager of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia. The valuations are most sensitive to the unobservable inputs of discount rates, as well as capitalization rates an expected future cash flows, and significant increases (decreases) in these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. On a quarterly basis, the Company obtains the financial results of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia and on an annual basis the Company receives audited financial statements. Real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing: Real estate investments classified as held for sale at the time of the Merger are reported at estimated fair value, less costs to sell. The fair value of real estate investments and their related lease intangibles is determined by an independent valuation firm using valuation techniques including the market approach, income approach, and cost approach. Key assumptions in the valuations, to which the fair value determinations are most sensitive, include discount and capitalization rates as well as expected future cash flows. Significant increases (decreases) in these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. As the inputs are unobservable, the Company determined the inputs used to value this liability falls within Level III for fair value reporting. Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Quantitative information regarding the valuation techniques and the range of significant unobservable Level III inputs used to determine fair value measurements on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2016 are: At March 31, 2016 Financial Asset or Liability Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Inputs Range Non-investment grade, subordinate CDO bonds $ 8,786 Discounted cash flows Discount rate 22.50% Interest rate swaps $ 27,461 Hypothetical derivative method Credit borrowing spread 135 to 220 basis points Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia $ 5,126 Discounted cash flows Discount rate 20.00% The following roll forward table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level III inputs: Retained CDO Bonds Investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia Total Financial Assets – Level III Balance as of December 31, 2015 $ 7,471 $ 5,508 $ 12,979 Amortization of discounts or premiums 381 — 381 Adjustments to fair value: Unrealized gain in other comprehensive income from fair value adjustment 934 — 934 Total income on fair value adjustment — (68 ) (68 ) Purchase price allocation adjustments — (314 ) (314 ) Balance as of March 31, 2016 $ 8,786 $ 5,126 $ 13,912 The following roll forward table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level III inputs: Derivative Instruments Balance as of December 31, 2015 $ 3,442 Adjustments to fair value: Ineffective portion of change in derivative instruments 1,830 Unrealized loss on derivatives 22,189 Balance as of March 31, 2016 $ 27,461 Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis The Company measured its real estate investments classified as held for sale at the time of the Merger on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Company had one and six assets in this classification as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, as the Company sold five of the assets during the first quarter of 2016. These assets were recorded at fair value, less costs to sell of $10,522 and $393,984 as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and are included in discontinued operations.

Derivative Instrument Detail [Abstract] | |
Derivative and Non-Derivative Hedging Instruments | Derivative and Non-Derivative Hedging Instruments In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed three interest rate swap derivative contracts related to mortgage loans on real estate assets and re-designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Additionally, following the Merger, the Company terminated the interest rate swap on its unsecured $200,000 senior term loan a nd, in connection with its entry into the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, entered into two new interest rate swap derivative contracts related to the 3-Year Term Loan and 7-Year Term Loan associated with its 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2016 , the Company’s derivative instruments consist of interest rate swaps, which are cash flow hedges. Changes in the effective portion of fair value of the derivatives are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item expires or is recognized in earnings. Borrowings on the Company’s foreign currency denominated tranche of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility and borrowings on the foreign currency denominated tranche of the Company’s $200,000 million senior revolving credit facility that the Company terminated in December 2015 , which are designated as non-derivative net investment hedges, are recognized at par value based on the exchange rate in effect on the date of the draw. Subsequent changes in the exchange rate of the Company’s non-derivative net investment hedge are recognized as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive income (loss). The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative or non-derivative hedging instrument will be immediately recognized in earnings. Derivative accounting may increase or decrease reported net income and shareholders’ equity, depending on future levels of LIBOR interest rates and other variables affecting the fair values of derivative instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on cash flows, provided the contract is carried through to full term. Refer to Note 2 and Note 9 for additional information on the Company’s derivative and non-derivative hedging instruments, including the fair value measurement of these instruments, as applicable. The following table summarizes the notional and fair value of the Company’s derivative and hedging instruments at March 31, 2016 . The fair value of the derivatives is presented in the Company’s balance sheet in Derivative instruments, at fair value and the carrying value of the non-derivative net investment hedge is included in the balance of the Company’s 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. The notional value is an indication of the extent of the Company’s involvement in this instrument at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks: Benchmark Rate Notional Value Strike Rate Effective Date Expiration Date Fair Value Assets of Non-VIEs: Interest Rate Swap - Waco 1 mo.

At March 31, 2016 , the interest rate swap derivative instruments were reported at their fair value as a net liability of $27,461 . Swap loss of $1,830 was recognized as interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations with respect to interest rate swap hedge ineffectiveness, or to amounts excluded from ineffectiveness, which relates to the off-market financing element associated with certain derivatives. No gain or loss was recognized with respect to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from ineffectiveness for the three months ended March 31, 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company reclassified $315 from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest expense related to a derivative terminated in 2015. Over time, the realized and unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. During the next 12 months, the Company expects that $9,145 will be reclassified from other comprehensive income as an increase in interest expense for the Company’s interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2016 . Additionally, the Company will recognize $3,468 in interest expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining original term of terminated swaps through June 2019, representing amortization of the remaining accumulated other comprehensive income balance related to the swap, and of this amount 1,087 will be recognized in interest expense during the next 12 months. Through its non-derivative net investment hedge, which was entered into in September 2015, the Company is hedging exposure to changes in the euro-U.S. dollar exchange rate of its net equity investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, which has euros as its functional currency. At March 31, 2016 , the non-derivative net investment hedge was reported at its carrying value as a net liability of $22,760 , which is included in the balance of the senior unsecured revolving credit facility on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company recorded a net loss of $(1,036) in other comprehensive income (loss) from the impact of exchange rates related to the non-derivative net investment hedge. No gain or loss was recognized with respect to non-derivative net investment hedge ineffectiveness, or to amounts excluded from ineffectiveness, in interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . When the non-derivative net investment is sold or substantially liquidated, the balance of the translation adjustment accumulated in other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Shareholders' Equity (Deficit) | Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit) The equity structure in the condensed consolidated financial statements following the reverse merger reflects the equity structure of the Company. As a result, the Company’s common shares outstanding have been adjusted retroactively for all prior periods presented computed on the basis of the number of shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio of 3.1898 established in the Merger Agreement. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Company’s authorized capital shares consist of 1,000,000,000 shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share, of which the Company is authorized to issue up to 990,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share, or common shares, and 10,000,000 preferred shares of beneficial interest, par value of $0.01 , or preferred shares. As of March 31, 2016 , 421,500,741 common shares and 3,500,000 preferred shares were issued and outstanding, respectively. All share, share price, and per share data has been updated retroactively to reflect the Merger exchange ratio of 3.1898 . In February 2016, the Company’s board of trustees authorized and the Company declared a dividend of $0.11 per common share, which was paid on April 15, 2016 to common share and unitholders of record as of the close of business on March 31, 2016 . In February 2016, the Company’s board of trustees approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $100,000 of the Company’s outstanding common shares. Purchases under the program will be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company did not repurchase any shares. In February 2015, Legacy Gramercy’s board of directors approved a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its common stock and outstanding Class A limited partnership units of Legacy Gramercy's operating partnership, or Legacy OP Units. The reverse stock split was effective after the close of trading on March 20, 2015, and the Company’s common stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange on March 23, 2015. Preferred Shares Upon closing of the Merger on December 17, 2015, each of Legacy Gramercy’s 3,500,000 shares of 7.125% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, or Series B Preferred Stock, was exchanged for one share of the Company’s 7.125% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Shares, or Series A Preferred Shares, which have the same preferences, rights and privileges as the Series B Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series A Preferred Shares are entitled to receive annual dividends of $1.78125 per share on a quarterly basis and dividends are cumulative, subject to certain provisions. On or after August 15, 2019, the Company can, at its option, redeem the Series A Preferred Shares at par for cash. At March 31, 2016 , the Company has 3,500,000 of its Series A Preferred Shares outstanding with a mandatory liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Equity Plan Activities Following the Merger, the Company’s active equity incentive plan, from which share awards are issued, is the legacy Chambers equity incentive plan, or the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. The 2013 Equity Incentive Plan allows for the following awards to be made: (i) stock options that qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, (ii) stock options that do not qualify, (iii) stock app reciation rights, (iv) share awards , (v) phantom shares, and (vi) dividend equivalents and other equity awards. As of March 31, 2016 , there were 2,820,792 shares available for grant under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, 2012 Inducement Plan, 2012 Outperformance Plan, and 2015 Equity Incentive Plan continued to exist following the Merger, however they became inactive and thus no new share awards will be issued out of any of those plans. In connection with the adoption of the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, seven senior officers were issued a total of 308,444 restricted shares in June 2015, 50% of which will vest on each of the fourth and fifth anniversaries of the grant date, subject to continued employment. Effective at the closing of the Merger, the change in accelerated vesting control provisions of the 2012 Outperformance Plan were waived by all plan participants, and as a result the LTIP units will continue on, subject to the original service and performance conditions. Through March 31, 2016 , 2,908,116 restricted shares had been issued under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plans, of which 59% have vested. Except for certain performance based awards, the vested and unvested shares are currently entitled to receive distributions on common shares if declared by the Company. Holders of restricted shares are prohibited from selling such shares until they vest but are provided the ability to vote such shares beginning on the date of grant. Compensation expense of $483 and $245 was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, related to the issuance of restricted shares. Compensation expense of $6,879 will be recorded over the course of the next 42 months representing the remaining weighted average vesting period of equity awards issued under the Equity Incentive Plans as of March 31, 2016 . As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company had 779,928 and 684,199 weighted-average unvested restricted shares outstanding, respectively. Compensation expense of $488 and $488 was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively, for the 2012 Outperformance Plan. Compensation expense of $2,438 will be recorded over the course of the next 15 months , representing the remaining weighted average vesting period of the awards issued under the 2012 Outperformance Plan as of March 31, 2016 . Deferred Stock Compensation Plan for Directors Under Legacy Gramercy’s Directors’ Deferral Program, which commenced April 2005 and was amended and restated effective January 1, 2015, the Company’s independent directors could elect to defer up to 100% of their annual retainer fee, chairman fees and meeting fees. Unless otherwise elected by a participant, fees deferred under the program were credited on a quarterly basis in the form of phantom shares using the closing price of the Company’s common stock for that quarter. Phantom shares were convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon such directors’ termination of service from the board of directors or a change in control by the Company. Participating directors who elected to receive fees in the form of phantom shares had the option to have their accounts credited for an equivalent amount of phantom shares stock units for any dividends declared based on the dividend rate for the quarter or have dividends paid in cash. In connection with the closing of the Merger, on December 17, 2015 each outstanding phantom share granted under Legacy Gramercy’s Directors’ Deferral Program, was vested and, on the first business day of the month following the Merger closing, converted into the right to receive a number of the Company’s common shares, rounded to the nearest whole share, determined by multiplying the number of subject phantom shares by the Exchange Ratio of the Merger. As a result, the directors received an aggregate of $916 in cash and 410,713 in shares in January 2016. The portion paid out in cash was classified as a liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2015. The Legacy Gramercy’s Directors’ Deferral Program terminated upon consummation of the Merger. Earnings per Share The Company has adopted the two-class computation method, and thus includes all participating securities in the computation of basic shares for the periods in which the Company has net income available to vested common shares outstanding. A participating security is defined as an unvested share-based payment award containing non-forfeitable rights to dividends regardless of whether or not the awards ultimately vest or expire. Net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. Earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are computed as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 2015 Numerator – Income (loss): Net income (loss) from continuing operations $ (5,693 ) $ 24 Net income (loss) from discontinued operations 4,640 (62 ) Net loss (1,053 ) (38 ) Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest 120 42 Nonforfeitable dividends allocated to unvested restricted shareholders (199 ) (19 ) Preferred share dividends (1,559 ) (1,559 ) Net loss available to vested common shares outstanding $ (2,691 ) $ (1,574 ) Denominator – Weighted average shares (1) : Weighted average basic shares outstanding 420,181,216 149,115,357 Effect of dilutive securities: Unvested share based payment awards — — Options — — Phantom shares — — Shares related to OP Units — — Exchangeable Senior Notes — — Diluted Shares 420,181,216 149,115,357 (1) As a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of common stock of Legacy Gramercy was converted into 3.1898 of a newly issued common share of the Company. Therefore, the historical data related to quarterly earnings per common share for the periods ended before December 31, 2015 have been adjusted by the Merger exchange ratio of 3.1898 . Diluted income (loss) per share assumes the conversion of all common share equivalents into an equivalent number of common shares if the effect is not anti-dilutive. Options were computed using the treasury share method. The Company only includes the effect of the excess conversion premium on its Exchangeable Senior Notes in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, as the Company has the intent and ability to settle the debt component of the Exchangeable Senior Notes in cash and the excess conversion premium in shares. The weighted average price of the Company’s common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was below the exchange price of $7.66 for the period. Therefore, there is no potential dilutive effect of the excess conversion premium and no effect was included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 . The weighted average price of the Company’s common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was above the exchange price of $7.76 for the period, however due to the net loss available to vested common shares outstanding, the excess conversion premium was excluded from the calculation of earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2015 . For the three months ended March 31, 2016 , 16,336 share options, 2,883,465 unvested share based payment awards, and 1,374,302 common shares related to Legacy OP Units were computed using the treasury share method, which due to the net loss from continuing operations excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest and adjusted for preferred dividends declared during the period were anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 , the Company excluded unvested restricted share awards of 779,928 from its weighted average basic shares outstanding due to the net loss from continuing operations excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest and adjusted for preferred dividends declared during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, 50,058 share options, 2,039,175 unvested share based payment awards, 488,778 phantom share units, 1,701,391 Legacy OP Units, and 1,737,718 Exchangeable Senior Notes were computed using the treasury share method, which due to the net loss from continuing operations excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest and adjusted for preferred dividends declared during the period were anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company excluded unvested restricted share awards of 520,585 from its weighted average basic shares outstanding due to the net loss from continuing operations excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest and adjusted for preferred dividends declared during the period. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is comprised of the following: March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Net unrealized loss on derivative securities $ (28,263 ) $ (6,074 ) Net unrealized gain on debt instruments 1,944 1,010 Foreign currency translation adjustments: Gain (loss) on non-derivative net investment hedge (1) (1,022 ) 14 Other foreign currency translation adjustments 6,499 (656 ) Reclassification of swap loss into interest expense 315 (45 ) Total accumulated other comprehensive loss $ (20,527 ) $ (5,751 ) (1) The foreign currency translation adjustment associated with the Company’s non-derivative net investment hedge related to its equity investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund is included in other comprehensive income (loss). |

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] | |
Noncontrolling Interest | Noncontrolling Interest Noncontrolling interests represent the common units of limited partnership interest in Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership, the entity that owns substantially all of Legacy Gramercy’s assets and investments, or Legacy OP Units, not held by the Company as well as third-party equity interests in the Company’s other consolidated subsidiaries. Legacy OP Units may be redeemed for one share of the Company’s common stock. The redemption rights are outside of the Company’s control, and thus the Legacy OP Units are classified as a component of temporary equity and are shown in the mezzanine equity section of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company is party by assumption to a registration rights agreement with the holders of the Legacy OP Units that requires the Company, subject to the terms and conditions and certain exceptions set forth therein, to file and maintain a registration statement relating to the issuance of shares of its common shares upon redemption of Legacy OP Units. Common Units of Limited Partnership Interest in the Operating Partnership On July 31, 2014, the Company issued 944,601 Legacy OP Units in connection with the acquisition of three properties. Subsequent to the Merger, each Legacy OP Unit may be redeemed at the election of the holder for cash equal to the then fair market value of 3.1898 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, except that the Company may, at its election, acquire each Legacy OP Unit for 3.1898 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Legacy OP Unit holders do not have any obligation to provide additional contributions to the partnership, nor do they have any decision making powers or control over the business of Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership. The Legacy OP Unit holders do not have voting rights; however, they are entitled to receive dividends. As of March 31, 2016 , the noncontrolling interest unit holders owned 420,486 Legacy OP Units, which can be redeemed for 1,341,268 shares, a s each Legacy OP Unit is redeemable for 3.1898 shares of the Company’s common stock following the Merger. The outstanding Legacy OP Units as of March 31, 2016 represent an interest of approximately 0.32% in the Company. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015 , 21,832 and 142,056 Legacy OP Units, respectively, were converted into shares of Legacy Gramercy’s common stock. At March 31, 2016 , 1,341,268 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance upon redemption of units of limited partnership interest of the Company’s Operating Partnership. Legacy OP Units are recorded at the greater of cost basis or fair market value based on the closing share price of the Company’s common shares at the end of the reporting period. As of March 31, 2016 , the value of the Legacy OP units was $11,334 . The Company attributes a portion of its net income (loss) during each reporting period to noncontrolling interest based on the percentage ownership of Legacy OP Unit holders relative to the Company’s total outstanding common shares and Legacy OP Units. The Company recognizes changes in fair value in the Legacy OP Units through accumulated deficit, however decreases in fair value are recognized only to the extent that increases to the amount in temporary equity were previously recorded. The Company’s diluted earnings per share includes the effect of any potential shares outstanding from redemption of the Legacy OP Units. Below is the rollforward of the activity relating to the noncontrolling interests in Legacy Gramercy’s operating partnership as of March 31, 2016 : Noncontrolling Interest Balance as of December 31, 2015 $ 10,892 Issuance of noncontrolling interests in the Company’s operating partnerships — Redemption of noncontrolling interests in the Company’s operating partnerships (523 ) Net loss attribution (8 ) Fair value adjustments 1,207 Dividends (234 ) Balance as of March 31, 2016 $ 11,334 Interests in Other Operating Partnerships In connection with the Company’s December 2014 investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, the Company acquired a 50% equity interest in European Fund Manager, which provides investment and asset management services to Gramercy European Property Fund. European Fund Manager is a VIE of the Company and is consolidated into its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of the VIE and consolidation considerations. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the value of the Company’s interest in European Fund Manager was $(377) and $(249) , respectively. The Company’s interest in European Fund Manager is presented in the equity section of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Funding Commitments The Company is obligated to fund the development of Proportion Foods, a build-to-suit property in Round Rock, Texas, which is a consolidated VIE, and upon substantial completion of the development to acquire the property through a forward purchase contract. The Company’s remaining future commitment for the property at March 31, 2016 is approximately $20,838 . The Company has committed approximately $56,900 ( €50,000 ) to the Gramercy European Property Fund, which was formed in December 2014. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company had contributed $28,134 ( €25,358 ) and $25,663 ( €23,160 ), respectively. See Note 5 , “Unconsolidated Equity Investments,” for further information on the Gramercy European Property Fund. Foreign currency commitments have been converted into U.S. dollars based on (i) the foreign exchange rate at the closing date for completed transactions and (ii) the exchange rate that prevailed on December 31, 2015, in the case of unfunded commitments. Legal Proceedings The Company evaluates litigation contingencies based on information currently available, including the advice of counsel and the assessment of available insurance coverage. The Company will establish accruals for litigation and claims when a loss contingency is considered probable and the related amount is reasonably estimable. The Company will periodically review these contingencies which may be adjusted if circumstances change. The outcome of a litigation matter and the amount or range of potential losses at particular points may be difficult to ascertain. If a range of loss is estimated and an amount within such range appears to be a better estimate than any other amount within that range, then that amount is accrued. Legacy Gramercy, its board of directors, Chambers and/or Merger Sub are named as defendants in two pending putative class action lawsuits brought by purported Legacy Gramercy stockholders challenging the Merger. Two suits that were separately filed in New York Supreme Court, New York County, captioned (i) Berliner v. Gramercy Property Trust, et al., Index No. 652424/2015 (filed July 9, 2015) and (ii) Gensler v. Baum, et al., Index No. 157432/2015 (filed July 22, 2015), have been consolidated into a single action under the caption In re Gramercy Property Trust Stockholder Litigation, Index No. 652424/2015 (the “New York Action”). In addition, four suits that were separately filed in Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, captioned (i) Jobin v. DuGan, et al., Case No. 24-C-15-003942 (filed July 27, 2015); (ii) Vojik v. Gramercy Property Trust, et al., Case No. 24-C-15-004412 (filed August 25, 2015); (iii) Hoffbauer et al. v. Chambers Street Properties, et al., 24-C-15-004904 (filed September 24, 2015) (originally filed as two separate suits in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County, Maryland, captioned Plemons v. Chambers Street Properties, et al., Case No. 03-C-15-007943 (filed July 24, 2015) and Hoffbauer et al. v. Chambers Street Properties, et al., Case No. 03-C-15-008639 (filed August 12, 2015), and refiled as a single action in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County on September 24, 2015); and (iv) Morris v. Gramercy Property Trust, et al., Case No. 24-C-15-004972 (filed September 28, 2015) have been consolidated into a single action under the caption Glenn W. Morris v. Gramercy Property Trust Inc. et al., Case No. 24-C-15-004972 (the “Maryland Action,” and together with the New York Action, the “Actions”). The complaints allege, among other things, that the directors of Legacy Gramercy breached their fiduciary duties to Legacy Gramercy stockholders by agreeing to sell the Company for inadequate consideration and agreeing to improper deal protection terms in the merger agreement, and that the preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus filed with the SEC on Form S-4 on September 11, 2015 was materially incomplete and misleading. The complaints also allege that Chambers, Merger Sub and/or Legacy Gramercy aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duty. The amended complaint in the Morris consolidated action also asserts derivative claims on behalf of Legacy Gramercy for breach of fiduciary duty against the directors of Legacy Gramercy. Plaintiffs seek, among other things, an injunction barring the Merger, rescission of the Merger to the extent it is already implemented, declaratory relief, an award of damages and/or costs/attorney fees. On December 7, 2015, the parties to the Actions entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”), which provides for the settlement of the Actions. While the defendants in the Actions continue to vigorously deny all allegations of wrongdoing, fault, liability or damage to any of the plaintiffs or the class of stockholders of Legacy Gramercy, and believe that no supplemental disclosure is required under the applicable law, in order to (i) avoid the burden, inconvenience, expense and distraction of further litigation in connection with the Actions, (ii) finally put to rest and terminate all of the claims that were or could have been asserted against the defendants in the Actions and (iii) permit the Merger to proceed without risk of the courts in New York or Maryland ordering an injunction or damages in connection with the Actions, Chambers and Legacy Gramercy agreed, without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, pursuant to the terms of the MOU, to make certain supplemental disclosures related to the proposed Merger, which were set forth in Legacy Gramercy’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with on December 7, 2015. The MOU contemplates that the parties will enter into a stipulation of settlement. The stipulation of settlement will be subject to customary conditions, including, among other things, confirmatory discovery and court approval following notice to Legacy Gramercy stockholders. In the event that the parties enter into a stipulation of settlement, a hearing will be scheduled at which a court will consider the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the settlement. If the settlement is finally approved by the court, it will resolve and release all claims by stockholders of Legacy Gramercy challenging any aspect of the proposed Merger, the Merger Agreement and any disclosure made in connection therewith, pursuant to terms that will be set forth in the notice sent to Legacy Gramercy stockholders prior to final approval of the settlement. In addition, in connection with the settlement, the parties contemplate that plaintiffs’ counsel will file a petition for an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to be paid by Gramercy or its successor. There can be no assurance that the court will approve the settlement. In the event that the settlement is not approved or that the conditions are not satisfied, the settlement may be terminated. On October 1, 2015, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Mercer County by a purported shareholder of Chambers. The action, captioned Elstein v. Chambers Street Properties et al., Docket No. L-002254-15 (the “New Jersey Action”), names as defendants Chambers, its board of trustees and Legacy Gramercy. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the trustees of Chambers breached their fiduciary duties to Chambers’ shareholders by agreeing to the Merger after a flawed sales process and by approving improper deal protection terms in the merger agreement, and that Legacy Gramercy aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duty. The complaint also alleges that the preliminary joint proxy statement/prospectus was materially misleading and incomplete. Plaintiffs seek, among other things, an injunction barring the Merger, rescission of the Merger to the extent it is already implemented, declaratory relief and an award of damages. On December 3, 2015, the parties to the New Jersey Action entered into a Stipulation of Settlement providing for the settlement of the New Jersey Action. While the defendants in the New Jersey Action continue to vigorously deny all allegations of wrongdoing, fault, liability or damage to any of the plaintiffs or the class of shareholders of Chambers, and believe that no supplemental disclosure is required under the applicable law, in order to (i) avoid the burden, inconvenience, expense and distraction of further litigation in connection with the New Jersey Action, (ii) finally put to rest and terminate all of the claims that were or could have been asserted against the defendants in the New Jersey Action and (iii) permit the Merger to proceed without risk of the Superior Court of New Jersey ordering an injunction or damages in connection with the New Jersey Action, Chambers and Legacy Gramercy agreed, without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, pursuant to the terms of the Stipulation of Settlement, to make certain supplemental disclosures related to the proposed Merger, all of which were set forth in Legacy Gramercy’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with on December 7, 2015. The Stipulation of Settlement is subject to customary conditions, including court approval following notice to the Chambers shareholders. On April 4, 2016, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement and scheduled a hearing to consider final approval for May 20, 2016. If the settlement is finally approved by the court, it will resolve and release all claims by shareholders of Chambers challenging any aspect of the proposed Merger, the Merger Agreement and any disclosure made in connection therewith, including in the Definitive Proxy Statement, pursuant to terms set forth in the notice sent to Chambers’ shareholders. There can be no assurance that the court will approve the settlement. In the event that the settlement is not approved or that the conditions are not satisfied, the settlement may be terminated. The defendants believe the lawsuits are without merit. In December 2010, the Company sold its 45% joint venture interest in the leased fee of the 2 Herald Square property in New York, New York, for approximately $25,600 plus assumed mortgage debt of approximately $86,100 , or the 2 Herald Sale Transaction. Subsequent to the closing of the transaction, the New York City Department of Finance, or the NYC DOF, and New York State Department of Taxation, or the NYS DOT, issued notices of determination assessing, in the case of the NYC DOF notice, approximately $2,924 of real property transfer tax, plus interest, and, in the case of the NYS DOT notice, approximately $446 of real property transfer tax, plus interest, collectively, the Transfer Tax Assessments, against the Company in connection with the 2 Herald Sale Transaction. The Company believes that NYC DOF and NYS DOT erred in issuing the Transfer Tax Assessments and intends to vigorously defend against same. In September 2013, the Company filed a petition challenging the NYC DOF Transfer Tax Assessment with the New York City Tax Appeal Tribunal. In July 2014, the Company filed a similar petition challenging the NYS DOT Transfer Tax Assessment. Trial of the Company’s NYC DOF Transfer Tax Assessment appeal was completed in December 2014. In April 2015, the New York City Tax Appeals Tribunal, or the NYC Tribunal, rendered an opinion denying the Company’s petition challenging the NYC DOF Transfer Tax Assessment and ruled that the Company is liable for the NYC DOF Transfer Tax Assessment. In July 2015, the Company appealed the adverse decision of the NYC Tribunal. A decision on the Company’s appeal is expected in late-2016. No decision has yet been rendered in connection with the NYS DOT Transfer Tax Assessment, which the Company anticipates will be set for trial by late 2016. In April 2015, to stop the accrual of additional interest while the Company’s appeals are pending, the Company paid the NYC DOF $4,025 in full satisfaction of the NYC DOF Transfer Tax Assessment and the NYS DOT $617 in full satisfaction of the NYS DOF Transfer Tax Assessment. There was $0 and $68 of additional interest recorded in discontinued operations for the matter for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In connection with the Company’s property acquisitions and the Merger, the Company has determined that there is a risk it will have to pay future amounts to tenants related to continuing operating expense reimbursement audits. The Company has estimated a range of loss and determined that its best estimate of total loss is $8,000 , including $1,000 related to the Merger, which has been accrued and recorded in other liabilities as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 . The Company has determined that there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may be incurred in excess of $8,000 and estimates this range to be $8,000 to $13,000 . In addition, the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries is party to various litigation matters that are considered routine litigation incidental to its business, none of which are considered material. Office Leases The Company has several office locations, which are each subject to operating lease agreements. These office locations include the Company’s corporate office at 521 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York, and the Company’s regional offices located in Horsham, Pennsylvania, Clayton, Missouri, and London, United Kingdom. Capital and Operating Ground Leases Certain properties acquired are subject to ground leases, which are accounted for as operating and capital leases. The ground leases have varying ending dates, renewal options and rental rate escalations, with the latest leases extending to June 2053 . Future minimum rental payments to be made by the Company under these noncancelable ground leases, excluding increases resulting from increases in the consumer price index, are as follows: Ground Leases - Operating Ground Leases - Capital Total April 1 to December 31, 2016 $ 1,374 $ — $ 1,374 2017 1,728 — 1,728 2018 1,728 — 1,728 2019 1,707 — 1,707 2020 1,732 — 1,732 Thereafter 47,991 329 48,320 Total minimum rent expense $ 56,260 $ 329 $ 56,589 The Company incurred rent expense on ground leases of $451 and $384 during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT, under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to stockholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that it distributes to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will then be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distributions to stockholders. However, the Company believes that it is organized and will operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and the Company intends to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner so that it will qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company may, however, be subject to certain state and local taxes. The Company’s TRSs are subject to federal, state and local taxes. The Company’s Asset and Property management business, Gramercy Asset Management, conducts its business through a wholly-owned TRS. In addition to the limitation on the Company’s use of its net operating losses under Section 382, since the Company uses separate subsidiary REITs and taxable REIT subsidiaries to conduct different aspects of its business, losses incurred by the individual subsidiary REITs and TRSs are only available to offset taxable income derived by each respective subsidiary REIT or TRS. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 the Company recorded $703 and $1,114 of income tax expense. Tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 in continuing operations is comprised of federal, state and local taxes primarily attributable to Gramercy Asset Management. The Company’s policy for interest and penalties, if any, on material uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements is to classify these as interest expense and operating expense, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not incur any material interest or penalties. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting | Segment Reporting As of March 31, 2016 , the Company has determined that it has two reportable operating segments: Asset Management and Investments/Corporate. The reportable segments are determined based upon the management approach, which looks to the Company’s internal organizational structure. The Company’s lines of business require different support infrastructures. All significant inter-segment balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Asset Management segment includes substantially all of the Company’s activities related to asset and property management of commercial properties located throughout the United States and Europe. The Asset Management segment generates revenues from fee income related to the management agreements for properties owned by third parties throughout the United States and Europe. The Investments/Corporate segment includes all of the Company’s activities related to the investment and ownership of commercial properties located throughout the United States and Europe. The Investments/Corporate segment generates revenues from rental revenues from properties owned by the Company, either directly or in unconsolidated equity investments. The Company evaluates performance based on the following financial measures for each segment: Asset Management Investments / Corporate Total Company Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Total revenues $ 5,151 $ 115,394 $ 120,545 Equity in net loss from unconsolidated equity investments — (2,755 ) (2,755 ) Total operating and interest expense (1) (5,459 ) (118,024 ) (123,483 ) Net loss from continuing operations $ (308 ) $ (5,385 ) $ (5,693 ) Asset Management Investments / Corporate Total Company Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 Total revenues $ 8,179 $ 39,756 $ 47,935 Equity in net loss from unconsolidated equity investments — (1 ) (1 ) Total operating and interest expense (1) (6,673 ) (41,237 ) (47,910 ) Net income (loss) from continuing operations $ 1,506 $ (1,482 ) $ 24 Asset Management Investments / Corporate Total Company Total Assets: March 31, 2016 $ 11,216 $ 5,337,093 $ 5,348,309 December 31, 2015 $ 5,882 $ 5,828,636 $ 5,834,518 (1) Total operating and interest expense includes operating costs on commercial property assets for the Investments/Corporate segment and costs to perform required functions under the management agreement for the Asset Management segment. Depreciation and amortization of $58,248 and $18,698 and provision for taxes of $703 and $1,114 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , respectively. |

Significant Accounting Polici25
Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 3 Months Ended |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company’s accounts and those of the Company’s subsidiaries which are wholly-owned or controlled by the Company, or entities which are variable interest entities, or VIEs, in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party that absorbs a majority of the VIE’s anticipated losses and/or a majority of the expected returns. The Company has evaluated its investments for potential classification as variable interests by evaluating the sufficiency of each entity’s equity investment at risk to absorb losses. Entities which the Company does not control and are considered VIEs, but where the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The equity interests of other limited partners in the Company’s operating partnerships are reflected as noncontrolling interests. |
Real Estate Investments | Real Estate Investments The Company records acquired real estate investments as business combinations when the real estate is occupied, at least in part, at acquisition. Costs directly related to the acquisition of such investments are expensed as incurred. The Company allocates the purchase price of real estate to land, building, improvements and intangibles, such as the value of above- and below-market leases, and origination costs associated with the in-place leases at the acquisition date. The values of the above- and below-market leases are amortized and recorded as either an increase, in the case of below-market leases, or a decrease, in the case of above-market leases, to rental revenue over the remaining term of the associated lease. The values associated with in-place leases are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining term of the associated lease. The Company assesses the fair value of the leases at acquisition based upon estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. Additionally, for transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase at the time of acquisition. Acquired real estate investments involving sale-leasebacks that have newly-originated leases are recorded as asset acquisitions and accordingly, transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition are capitalized. Acquired real estate investments which are under construction are considered build-to-suit transactions and other acquired real estate investments that do not meet the definition of a business combination are recorded at cost. In build-to-suit transactions, the Company engages a developer to construct a property or provides funds to a tenant to develop a property. The Company capitalizes the funds provided to the developer/tenant and real estate taxes, if applicable, during the construction period. Certain improvements are capitalized when they are determined to increase the useful life of the building. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life at acquisition of the capitalized item or 40 years for buildings, five to ten years for building equipment and fixtures, and the lesser of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. In leasing space, the Company may provide funding to the lessee through a tenant allowance. If the Company is considered the owner of the leasehold improvements constructed using a tenant allowance, the Company capitalizes the amount of the allowance and depreciates it over the shorter of the useful life of the leasehold improvements or the lease term. If the tenant allowance represents a payment for a purpose other than funding leasehold improvements, or if the Company is not considered the owner of the improvements for accounting purposes, the allowance is considered to be a lease incentive and is recognized over the lease term as a reduction of rental revenue. The Company also reviews the recoverability of the property’s carrying value when circumstances indicate a possible impairment of the value of a property, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. If management determines impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used and for assets held for sale, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the fair value less estimated cost of disposal. The estimated fair value of the asset becomes its new cost basis and if the asset is to be held and used, the new cost basis will be depreciated or amortized over its remaining useful life. |
Unconsolidated Equity Investments | Unconsolidated Equity Investments The Company accounts for substantially all of its unconsolidated equity investments under the equity method of accounting since it exercises significant influence, but does not unilaterally control the entities, and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. In unconsolidated equity investments, the rights of the other investors are protective and participating. Unless the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary, these rights preclude it from consolidating the investments. The investments are recorded initially at cost as unconsolidated equity investments, as applicable, and subsequently are adjusted for equity interest in net income (loss) and cash contributions and distributions. The amount of the investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is evaluated for impairment at each reporting period. None of the unconsolidated equity investment debt is recourse to the Company. Transactions with unconsolidated equity method entities are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s ownership in each such entity. Accordingly, the Company’s share of net income (loss) of these equity method entities is included in consolidated net income (loss). The Company’s 5.07% investment in CBRE Strategic Partners Asia, the Company’s unconsolidated equity investment described more in Note 5, is presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at fair value. CBRE Strategic Partners Asia is an investment company that accounts for its investments at fair value with changes in the fair value of the investments recorded in the statement of operations. See the “Fair Value Measurements” section of Note 2 as well as Note 9 , “ Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion of the fair value accounting methodology used for CBRE Strategic Partners Asia. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash The Company had restricted cash of $166,552 and $17,354 at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively, which primarily consists of proceeds from property sales held by qualified intermediaries to be used for tax-deferred, like-kind exchanges under IRC Section 1031, as well as reserves for certain capital improvements, leasing, interest and real estate tax and insurance payments as required by certain mortgage loan obligations. |
Variable Interest Entities, Consolidated and Unconsolidated | Consol idated VIEs Proportion Foods In December 2015, the Company entered into a non-recourse financing arrangement with Big Proportion Austin LLC, or BIG, for a build-to-suit industrial property in Round Rock, Texas, or Proportion Foods. Concurrently, the Company entered into a forward purchase agreement with BIG, pursuant to which the Company will acquire the property, which is 100% leased to Proportion Foods, upon substantial completion of the facility’s development. The Company has determined that Proportion Foods is a VIE, as the equity holders of the entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. The Company controls the activities that most significantly affect the economic outcome of Proportion Foods through its financing arrangement to fund the property’s development and its forward purchase agreement with BIG. As such, the Company has concluded that it is the entity’s primary beneficiary and has consolidated the VIE. The Company has a note receivable from BIG related to the financing arrangement, which is a note payable for BIG and thus eliminates upon consolidation of the VIE. The construction of the facility on the property is expected to be complete in December 2016 and the Company has committed $24,950 in financing for the construction. BIG is responsible for funding in excess of the $24,950 mortgage note. As of March 31, 2016 , the Company has funded $8,270 for the property. Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Manager) In connection with the Company’s December 2014 investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, the Company acquired equity interests in the entity, hereinafter European Fund Manager, which provides investment and asset management services to Gramercy European Property Fund. The Company has determined that European Fund Manager is a VIE, as the equity holders of that entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. As Gramercy Europe Asset Management, through an investment advisory agreement with the VIE, controls the activities that most significantly affect the economic outcome of European Fund Manager, the Company has concluded that it is the entity’s primary beneficiary and has consolidated the VIE. European Fund Manager is expected to generate net cash inflows for the Company in the form of management fees in the future, however, if the VIE’s cash inflows are not sufficient to cover its obligations, the Company may provide financial support for the VIE. Unconsolidated VIEs Gramercy Europe Asset Management (European Fund Carry Co.) In connection with the Company’s December 2014 investment in the Gramercy European Property Fund, the Company acquired equity interests in the entity, hereinafter European Fund Carry Co., entitled to receive certain preferential distributions, if any, made from time-to-time by Gramercy European Property Fund. The Company has determined that European Fund Carry Co. is a VIE, as the equity holders of that entity do not have controlling financial interests and the obligation to absorb losses. Decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of European Fund Carry Co. are decided by a majority vote of that VIE’s shareholders. As such, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the VIE and has accounted for it as an equity investment. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , European Fund Carry Co. had net assets of $(17) and $(5) . Investment in Retained CDO Bonds The Retained CDO Bonds are non-investment grade subordinate bonds, preferred shares and ordinary shares of three collateralized debt obligations, or CDOs, which the Company recognized subsequent to the disposal of its Gramercy Finance segment, or Gramercy Finance, and exit from the commercial real estate finance business in March 2013. The Company is not obligated to provide any financial support to these CDOs. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to its interest in the Retained CDO Bonds and the Company does not control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. |
Assets Held For Sale and Discontinued Operations | Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company had one and six assets classified as held for sale, respectively, which represent legacy Chambers properties that qualified as held for sale as of the closing date of the Merger and are included within discontinued operations, in accordance with ASC 360, as these assets acquired in the Merger do not align with the Company’s investment strategy and therefore will be sold. Real estate investments to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value, less costs to sell. Once an asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation and amortization expense is no longer recorded. |
Tenant and Other Receivables | Tenant and Other Receivables Tenant and other receivables are derived from management fees, rental revenue and tenant reimbursements. Management fees, including incentive management fees, are recognized as earned in accordance with the terms of the management agreements. The management agreements may contain provisions for fees related to dispositions, administration of the assets including fees related to accounting, valuation and legal services, and management of capital improvements or projects on the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recorded on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Since many leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires the Company to record a receivable, and include in revenues, unbilled rent receivables that will only be received if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. Tenant and other receivables also include receivables related to tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance expenses and certain other recoverable expenses that are recognized as revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. Tenant and other receivables are recorded net of the allowances for doubtful accounts, which as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $261 and $204 , respectively. The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent, tenant reimbursements, and management fees, including incentive fees, and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant or asset management clients’ payment history, the financial condition of the tenant or asset management client, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant or asset management client operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property or asset management client is located. In the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, the Company increases the allowance for doubtful accounts or records a direct write-off of the receivable. |
Intangible Assets and Liabilities | Intangible Assets and Liabilities The Company follows the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets include land, buildings and improvements on an as-if vacant basis and identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquired leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and above-market and below-market ground rent intangibles. The above- and below-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of and increase to rental revenue, respectively, over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. The value of in-place leases is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases. To the extent acquired leases contain fixed rate renewal options that are below-market and determined to be material, the Company amortizes such below-market lease value into rental revenue over the renewal period. If a tenant terminates its lease prior to its contractual expiration and no future rental payments will be received, any unamortized balance of the market lease intangibles will be written off to rental revenue and any unamortized balance of the in-place lease intangibles will be written off to depreciation and amortization expense. The above- and below-market ground rent intangible values are amortized as a reduction of and increase to rent expense, respectively, over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. If the Company terminates its lease prior to its contractual expiration and no future rent payments will be paid, any unamortized balance of the ground rent intangibles will be written off to rent expense. |
Goodwill | Goodwill Goodwill represents the fair value of the collaboration expected to be achieved upon consummation of a business combination and is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net assets acquired at acquisition date. The Company initially recognized goodwill of $3,887 related to the acquisition of Gramercy Europe Asset Management, however during the second quarter of 2015, as a result of finalization of the purchase price allocation for the acquisition, the Company decreased the amount allocated to goodwill by $85 and thus the final purchase price allocation to goodwill as a result of the acquisition was $3,802 . The adjustment to goodwill for the finalized purchase price was primarily related to a reduction in the contract intangible value as well as an increase in the accrued income recorded for incentive fees. The carrying value of goodwill is adjusted each reporting period for the effect of foreign currency translation adjustments. The carrying value of goodwill at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $3,477 and $3,568 , respectively. The Company’s goodwill has an indeterminate life and is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company takes a qualitative approach to consider whether an impairment of goodwill exists prior to quantitatively determining the fair value of the reporting unit in step one of the impairment test. |
Deferred Costs | Deferred Costs Deferred costs consist of deferred financing costs, deferred acquisition costs, and deferred leasing costs. Deferred costs are presented net of accumulated amortization. The Company’s deferred financing costs are comprised of costs associated with the Company’s unsecured credit facilities and include commitment fees, issuance costs, and legal and other third-party costs associated with obtaining the related financing. Deferred financing costs are amortized on a straight-line or effective interest basis over the contractual terms of the respective agreements and the amortization is reflected as interest expense. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financing transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance related to the presentation of deferred financing costs on the balance sheet and reclassified amounts from the deferred costs line pertaining to debt arrangements other than its unsecured credit facilities, that were within the asset section, to instead be netted against the corresponding debt liability for all periods presented. See “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” below for further discussion of the new accounting guidance for deferred financing costs. The Company’s deferred acquisition costs consist primarily of lease inducement fees paid to secure acquisitions and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term as a reduction from rental revenue. The Company’s deferred leasing costs include direct costs, such as lease commissions, incurred to initiate and renew operating leases and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term as a reduction from rental revenue. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , the Company measured its Retained CDO Bonds, derivative instruments, and CBRE Strategic Partners Asia on a recurring basis and measured its real estate investments classified as held for sale at Merger closing on a non-recurring basis. ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” among other things, establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring financial instruments and other assets and liabilities at fair value. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair values. Accordingly, fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of these assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, or an exit price. The level of pricing observability generally correlates to the degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities. The investment manager of CBRE Strategic Partners Asia applies valuation techniques for the Company’s investment carried at fair value based upon the application of the income approach, the direct market comparison approach, the replacement cost approach or third-party appraisals to the underlying assets held in the unconsolidated entity in determining the net asset value attributable to the Company’s ownership interest therein. The three broad levels defined are as follows: Level I – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities that have quoted prices that are available in liquid markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities for which quoted prices are available but which are traded less frequently and instruments that are measured at fair value using management’s judgment, where the inputs into the determination of fair value can be directly observed. Level III – This level is comprised of financial instruments and other assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These financial instruments do not have active markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment and assumptions. For a further discussion regarding fair value measurements see Note 9 , “Fair Value Measurements.” |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Real Estate Investments Rental revenue from leases on real estate investments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, regardless of when payments are contractually due. The excess of rental revenue recognized over the amounts contractually due according to the underlying leases are included in deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For leases on properties that are under construction at the time of acquisition, the Company begins recognition of rental revenue upon completion of construction of the leased asset and delivery of the leased asset to the tenant. The Company’s lease agreements with tenants also generally contain provisions that require tenants to reimburse the Company for real estate taxes, insurance costs, common area maintenance costs, and other property-related expenses. Under lease arrangements in which the Company is the primary obligor for these expenses, such amounts are recognized as both revenues and operating expenses for the Company. Under lease arrangements in which the tenant pays these expenses directly, such amounts are not included in revenues or expenses. These reimbursement amounts are recognized in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. The Company recognizes sales of real estate properties only upon closing. Payments received from purchasers prior to closing are recorded as deposits. Profit on real estate sold is recognized using the full accrual method upon closing when the collectability of the sale price is reasonably assured and the Company is not obligated to perform significant activities after the sale. Profit may be deferred in whole or part until the sale meets the requirements of profit recognition on sale of real estate. Asset Management Business The Company’s asset and property management agreements may contain provisions for fees related to dispositions, administration of the assets including fees related to accounting, valuation and legal services, and management of capital improvements or projects on the underlying assets. The Company recognizes revenue for fees pursuant to its management agreements in the period in which they are earned. Management fees received prior to the date earned are included in deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of the Company’s asset management contracts include provisions that may allow it to earn additional fees, generally described as incentive fees or profit participation interests, based on the achievement of a targeted valuation of the managed assets or the achievement of a certain internal rate of return on the managed assets. The Company recognizes incentive fees on its asset management contracts based upon the amount that would be due pursuant to the contract, if the contract were terminated at the reporting date. If the contract may be terminated at will, revenue will only be recognized for the amount that would be due pursuant to that termination. If the incentive fee is a fixed amount, only a proportionate share of revenue is recognized at the reporting date, with the remaining fees recognized on a straight-line basis over the measurement period. The values of incentive management fees are periodically evaluated by management. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 , and 2015 , the Company recognized incentive fees of $973 and $3,035 , respectively. Investment and Other Income Investment income consists primarily of income accretion on the Company’s Retained CDO Bonds, which are measured at fair value on a quarterly basis using a discounted cash flow model. Other income primarily consists of interest income on servicing advances and realized foreign currency exchange gain (loss). |
Stock-Based Compensation Plans | Share-Based Compensation Plans The Company has share-based compensation plans, described more fully in Note 11 . The Company accounts for share-based awards using the fair value recognition provisions. Awards of shares or restricted shares are expensed as compensation over the benefit period and may require inputs that are highly subjective and require significant management judgment and analysis to develop. The Company assumes a forfeiture rate which impacts the amount of aggregate compensation cost recognized. In accordance with the provisions of the Company’s share-based compensation plans, the Company accepts the return of shares of the Company’s common shares, at the current quoted market price to satisfy minimum statutory tax-withholding requirements related to shares that vested during the period. The Company also grants awards pursuant to its share-based compensation plans in the form of LTIP units, which are a class of limited partnership interests in the Company’s operating partnerships. |
Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency Gramercy Europe Asset Management operates an asset and property management business in the United Kingdom. The Company owns one property located in the United Kingdom and has unconsolidated equity investments in Europe and Asia. The Company also has euro-denominated borrowings outstanding under the multi-currency portion of its revolving credit facility. Refer to Note 5 for more information on the Company’s foreign unconsolidated equity investments. Translation The Company has interests in the European Union and United Kingdom for which the functional currency is the euro and the British pound sterling, respectively. The Company performs the translation from the euro or the British pound sterling to the U.S. dollar for assets and liabilities using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted-average exchange rate during the period. The Company reports the gains and losses resulting from such translation as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). As of March 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Company recorded net translation gains (losses) of $6,119 and $(218) , respectively. These translation gains and losses are reclassified to earnings when the Company has substantially exited from all investments in the related currency. Transaction Gains or Losses A transaction gain or loss realized upon settlement of a foreign currency transaction will be included in earnings for the period in which the transaction is settled. Foreign currency intercompany transactions that are scheduled for settlement are included in the determination of net income. Intercompany foreign currency transactions of a long-term nature that do not have a planned or foreseeable future settlement date, in which the entities to the transactions are consolidated or accounted for by the equity method in the Company’s financial statements, are not included in net income but are reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Net realized gains (losses) are recognized on foreign currency transactions in connection with the transfer of cash from or to foreign operations of subsidiaries or equity investments to the parent company. |
Derivative and Non-Derivative Hedging Instruments | Derivative and Non-Derivative Hedging Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes and foreign exchange rate changes. The Company limits these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives and non-derivative net investment hedges. The Company uses a variety of derivative instruments that are considered “plain vanilla” derivatives to manage, or hedge, interest rate risk. The Company enters into hedging and derivative instruments that will be maximally effective in reducing the interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. This effectiveness is essential for qualifying for hedge accounting. Instruments that meet these hedging criteria are formally designated as hedges at the inception of the derivative contract. The Company’s derivative and non-derivative hedging instruments typically include interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors, as well as non-derivative net investment hedges. The Company expressly prohibits the use of unconventional derivative instruments and using derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Further, the Company has a policy of only entering into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If a derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Derivative accounting may increase or decrease reported net income and shareholders’ equity prospectively, depending on future levels of the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, swap spreads and other variables affecting the fair values of derivative instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on cash flows, provided the contract is carried through to full term. The Company’s non-derivative hedging instrument, the foreign currency denominated tranche of the Company’s 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, is reported at carrying value on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As the non-derivative net investment hedge is denominated in euros, the Company translates the carrying value in euros into its functional and reporting currency of U.S. dollars at the period-ending rate and reports this value in its financial statements, with the foreign currency translation adjustment associated with the hedged net investment reported in the cumulative translation adjustment within other comprehensive income (loss). Refer to Note 10 for more information on the Company’s derivative and non-derivative hedging instruments. |
Other Assets | Other Assets The Company makes payments for certain expenses such as insurance and property taxes in advance of the period in which it receives the benefit. These payments are classified as other assets and amortized over the respective period of benefit relating to the contractual arrangement. Other assets also includes deposits related to pending acquisitions and financing arrangements, as required by a seller or lender, respectively. Costs prepaid in connection with securing financing for a property are reclassified into deferred financing costs at the time the transaction is completed. Additionally, other assets includes costs of software purchased for internal use and as well as the value of contracts assumed by the Company pursuant to a business combination, such as asset or property management contracts. |
Servicing Advances Receivable | Servicing Advances Receivable The Company’s servicing advances receivable consisted of its accrual for the reimbursement of servicing advances, including expenses such as legal fees and professional fees incurred while the Company was the collateral manager of the CDOs, which were recognized as part of the disposal of Gramercy Finance in March 2013. |
Retained CDO Bonds | Retained CDO Bonds The Retained CDO Bonds are non-investment grade subordinate bonds, preferred shares and ordinary shares of three CDOs, which the Company recognized at fair value and retained in March 2013 subsequent to the disposal of Gramercy Finance. Management estimated the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected and recognized an investment in the Retained CDO Bonds equal to the net present value of these discounted cash flows. There is no guarantee that the Company will realize any proceeds from this investment, or what the timing will be for the expected remaining life of the Retained CDO Bonds. The Company considers these investments to be not of high credit quality and does not expect a full recovery of interest and principal. Therefore, the Company has suspended interest income accruals on these investments. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the Retained CDO Bonds to determine whether significant changes in estimated cash flows or unrealized losses on these investments, if any, reflect a decline in value which is other-than-temporary. If there is a decrease in estimated cash flows and the investment is in an unrealized loss position, the Company will record an other-than-temporary impairment, or OTTI, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. To determine the component of the OTTI related to expected credit losses, the Company compares the amortized cost basis of the Retained CDO Bonds to the present value of the revised expected cash flows, discounted using the pre-impairment yield. Conversely, if the security is in an unrealized gain position and there is a decrease or significant increase in expected cash flows, the Company will prospectively adjust the yield using the effective yield method. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT, under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income, to shareholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that the Company distributes to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will then be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distributions to shareholders. However, the Company believes that it will be organized and will operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and the Company intends to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner so that it will qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company is subject to certain state and local taxes. The Company’s TRSs are subject to federal, state and local taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 , the Company recorded $703 and $1,114 of income tax expense, respectively. Tax expense for each year is comprised of federal, state, local, and foreign taxes. Income taxes, primarily related to the Company’s TRSs, are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided if the Company believes it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any increase or decrease in a valuation allowance is included in the tax provision when such a change occurs. The Company’s policy for interest and penalties, if any, on material uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements is to classify these as interest expense and operating expense, respectively. |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share, or EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to vested common shareholders by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. The Company has adopted the two-class computation method, and thus includes all participating securities in the computation of basic shares for the periods in which the Company has net income avail a ble to vested common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares, as long as their inclusion would not be anti-dilutive. Refer to Note 11 for further discussion of the computation of EPS. |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash investments, debt investments and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash investments in excess of insured amounts with high quality financial institutions. Concentrations of credit risk also arise when a number of the Company’s tenants or asset management clients are engaged in similar business activities or are subject to similar economic risks or conditions that could cause their inability to meet contractual obligations to the Company. The Company regularly monitors its portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Reclassification | Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuances Costs, which requires the Company to reclassify debt financing costs, which were previously accounted for on the deferred costs line within the asset section, and present them in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the corresponding debt liability, with the exception of deferred financing costs associated with the credit facility which remain in deferred costs in the asset section on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred financing costs totaling $6,389 have been reclassified in the December 31, 2015 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet from the deferred costs line and netted against the corresponding debt liability. See “Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements” below for further discussion of the new accounting guidance for deferred financing costs. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which creates a new Topic ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, the guidance requires increased disclosures related to revenue recognition. The update was originally effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which deferred the effective date so that it is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption only permitted as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company will appropriately adopt and apply the guidance retrospectively for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and the interim periods within that year. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the impact it may have on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which amends the current consolidation guidance, including introducing a separate consolidation analysis specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities. Under this analysis, limited partnerships and other similar entities will be considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2016, which did not result in changes to the Company’s conclusions regarding consolidation of applicable entities. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which serves to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs in a company’s financial statements. The amendments in the update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that liability. The update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest – Imputation of Interest, which allows an entity to present the debt issuance costs from a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2016 and reclassified amounts in each period presented. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as the update relates only to changes in financial statement presentation. See the “Reclassification” section above for further details on the adoption of this guidance. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software: Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. The update requires companies to account for the software license element of a cloud computing arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses and other licenses of intangible assets. The update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. The update will be effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The new standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new leases standard on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The update serves to simplify the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification of awards on the statement of cash flows. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for any interim or annual period. The Company has not elected early adoption of the amendments in the updates and expects that the new guidance will not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |
