Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Basis of Presentation	1. Organization JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH") is a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT"), which owns and operates a portfolio of high-growth commercial and multifamily assets, many of which are amenitized with ancillary retail. JBG SMITH's portfolio reflects its longstanding strategy of owning and operating assets within Metro-served submarkets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area that have high barriers to entry and key urban amenities, including being within walking distance of a Metro station. Substantially all of JBG SMITH's assets are held by, and its operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), its operating partnership. As of June 30, 2020, JBG SMITH, as its sole general partner, controlled JBG SMITH LP and owned 90.4% of its common limited partnership units ("OP Units"). JBG SMITH is hereinafter referred to as "we," "us," "our" or other similar terms. References to "our share" refer to our ownership percentage of consolidated and unconsolidated assets in real estate ventures. We were organized for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Vornado Realty Trust's ("Vornado") Washington, D.C. segment. On July 18, 2017, we acquired the management business and certain assets and liabilities of The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction." As of June 30, 2020, our Operating Portfolio consisted of 63 operating assets comprising 43 commercial assets totaling 13.3 million square feet (11.2 million square feet at our share) and 20 multifamily assets totaling 7,367 units (5,583 units at our share). Additionally, we have (i) three assets under construction comprising one wholly owned commercial asset totaling 274,000 square feet and two multifamily assets totaling 755 units (577 units at our share); and (ii) 35 future development assets totaling approximately 19.4 million square feet (16.6 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density. Our revenues are derived primarily from leases with commercial and multifamily tenants, which include fixed rents and reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses such as real estate taxes, property operating expenses, and repairs and maintenance. In addition, our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to third parties, the Washington Housing Initiative ("WHI"), Amazon.com ("Amazon") and the legacy funds formerly organized by JBG (the "JBG Legacy Funds"). Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information required in annual financial statements and notes as required under GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JBG SMITH and our wholly owned subsidiaries and those other entities, including JBG SMITH LP, in which we have a controlling financial interest, including where we have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). See Note 5 for additional information on our VIEs. The portions of the equity and net income (loss) of consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable to JBG SMITH are presented separately as amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated financial statements. References to our financial statements refer to our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. References to our balance sheets refer to our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. References to our statements of operations refer to our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. References to our statements of comprehensive loss refer to our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. References to our statements of cash flows refer to our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Income Taxes We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. We intend to adhere to these requirements and maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by subsidiary entities which have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the income from these activities. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) (P.L. 116-136) that was enacted on March 27, 2020 includes several significant tax provisions that could impact us and our taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"). These changes include: ● the elimination of the taxable income limit for net operating losses ("NOLs") for all taxable years beginning before January 1, 2021, thereby permitting corporate taxpayers to use NOLs to fully offset taxable income (although we, as a REIT, will continue to only be able to use NOLs against taxable income remaining after taking into account any dividends paid deduction); ● the ability for our TRSs to utilize carryback NOLs arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to the five taxable years preceding the taxable year of the loss; ● an increase of the business interest limitation under Section 163(j) of the Code from 30% to 50% for taxable years beginning in 2019 and 2020, and the addition of an election by taxpayers to use their 2019 adjusted taxable income as their adjusted taxable income in 2020 for purposes of applying the limitation; and ● a “technical correction” amending Section 168(e)(3)(E) of the Code to add “qualified improvement property” to “15-year property” and assigning a class life of 20-years under Section 168(g)(3)(B) of the Code to qualified improvement property under Section 168(e)(3)(E)(vii) of the Code . During the six months ended June 30, 2020, as a result of the CARES Act, we made adjustments to the net deferred tax liability amounts, which relate to “qualified improvement property” owned by our TRSs.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Significant Accounting Policies There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates include: (i) the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment; (ii) the determination of useful lives for tangible and intangible assets; and (iii) the assessment of the collectability of receivables, including deferred rent receivables. Due to the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, commencing in March 2020, authorities in jurisdictions where our properties are located issued stay-at-home orders and restrictions on travel and permitted businesses operations. The effects of COVID-19 have most significantly impacted the operations of many of our retail tenants, which generated approximately 7% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019, our commercial parking revenue and our interest in the operations of the Crystal City Marriott and The Marriott Wardman Park hotels. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts us and our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain. The extent and duration of the stay-at-home orders and other effects of COVID-19 on us and our tenants will affect estimates used in the preparation of the underlying cash flows used in assessing our long-lived assets for impairment and the assessment of the collectability of receivables from tenants, including deferred rent receivables. We have made what we believe to be appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. To the extent these estimates differ from actual results, our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform ("Topic 848"). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. ​ COVID-19 Lease Modification Accounting Relief Due to the business disruptions and challenges severely affecting the global economy caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have provided rent deferrals and other lease concessions to certain of our tenants. In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a Staff Q&A that allows lessors to elect not to evaluate whether lease-related relief provided to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 is a lease modification under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases ("Topic 842") if certain criteria are met. This election allows us to bypass a lease-by-lease analysis, and instead choose to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have elected to apply the lease modification policy relief and have accounted for lease-related relief provided to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 as lease modifications under Topic 842, regardless of whether the right to such relief was embedded within the terms of the lessee’s lease. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into rent deferral agreements with certain of our tenants, many of which were placed on the cash basis of accounting, resulting in the deferral to future periods of $1.2 million of rent that had been contractually due in the second quarter. We are in the process of negotiating additional rent deferrals and other lease concessions with some of our tenants. ​ During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $3.6 million and $4.7 million of credit losses against billed rent receivables and $2.0 million and $3.6 million against deferred (straight-line) rent receivables due to the effects of COVID-19 related to certain of our tenants, primarily our retail tenants, that are unable to pay rent while businesses are closed or not operating at full capacity. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we also recorded $2.4 million of reserves against receivables from one of our parking operators that filed for bankruptcy protection. Additionally, in connection with the preparation and review of our second quarter 2020 financial statements, we determined that our investment in the venture that owns The Marriott Wardman Park hotel was impaired due to a decline in the fair value of the underlying asset and recorded an impairment charge of $6.5 million, reducing the net book value of our investment to zero (see Note 4 for additional information). ​

We have multiple investments with certain venture partners with varying ownership interests. (2) In April 2020, our real estate venture with CPPIB entered into a mortgage loan with a maximum principal balance of $160.0 million collateralized by 1900 N Street. The venture initially received proceeds from the mortgage loan of $134.5 million, with an additional $25.5 million available in the future. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we received a distribution of $70.8 million from the venture. (3) In connection with the preparation and review of our second quarter 2020 financial statements, we determined that our investment in the venture that owns The Marriott Wardman Park hotel was impaired due to a decline in the fair value of the underlying asset and recorded an impairment charge of $6.5 million, reducing the net book value of our investment to zero . In June 2020, our unconsolidated real estate venture with Landmark sold Woodglen, commercial and future development assets located in Rockville, Maryland, for $17.8 million. In connection with the sale, we recognized our proportionate share of the loss from the sale of $3.0 million, which is included in "Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Additionally, in connection with the sale, our unconsolidated real estate venture repaid the related mortgage payable of $12.2 million. We provide leasing, property management and other real estate services to our unconsolidated real estate ventures. We recognized revenue, including expense reimbursements, of $6.3 million and $13.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and $7.8 million and $13.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 for such services. Reconsideration events could cause us to consolidate these unconsolidated real estate ventures in the future or deconsolidate a consolidated entity. We evaluate reconsideration events as we become aware of them. Reconsideration events include additional contributions being required by each partner and each partner's ability to make those contributions. Under certain circumstances, we may purchase our partner's interest. Our unconsolidated real estate ventures are held in entities which appear sufficiently stable to meet their capital requirements; however, if market conditions worsen and our partners are unable to meet their commitments, we may have to consolidate these entities The following is a summary of the debt of our unconsolidated real estate ventures: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Weighted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Average Effective ​ ​ ​ Interest Rate (1) June 30, 2020 December 31, 2019 ​ ​ ​ ​ (In thousands) Variable rate (2) 2.38% ​ $ 767,164 ​ $ 629,479 Fixed rate (3) 4.00% ​ 566,025 ​ 561,236 Unconsolidated real estate ventures - mortgages payable ​ ​ ​ 1,333,189 ​ 1,190,715 Unamortized deferred financing costs ​ ​ ​ (8,138) ​ (2,859) Unconsolidated real estate ventures - mortgages payable, net (4) ​ ​ ​ $ 1,325,051 ​ $ 1,187,856 (1) Weighted average effective interest rate as of June 30, 2020.

Variable Interest Entities

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Variable Interest Entities	5. We hold various interests in entities deemed to be VIEs, which we evaluate at acquisition, formation, after a change in the ownership agreement or after a change in the real estate venture's economics to determine if the VIEs should be consolidated in our financial statements or should no longer be considered a VIE. Certain criteria we assess in determining whether the VIEs should be consolidated relate to our control over significant business activities, our voting rights and the noncontrolling interest kick-out rights, which ultimately dictate whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Unconsolidated VIEs As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had interests in entities deemed to be VIEs that are in the development stage and do not hold sufficient equity at risk or conduct substantially all their operations on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. Although we are engaged to act as the managing partner in charge of day-to-day operations of these investees, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, as we do not hold unilateral power over activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the respective VIE's performance. We account for our investment in these entities under the equity method. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net carrying amounts of our investment in these entities were $164.6 million and $242.9 million, which are included in "Investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures" in our balance sheets. Our equity in the income of unconsolidated VIEs is included in "Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations. Our maximum loss exposure in these entities is limited to our investments, construction commitments and certain guarantees. See Note 17 for additional information. Consolidated VIEs JBG SMITH LP is our sole consolidated VIE. We hold 90.4% of the limited partnership interest in JBG SMITH LP, act as the general partner and exercise full responsibility, discretion and control over its day-to-day management. We consolidate VIEs in which we control the significant business activities. These entities are VIEs because they are in the development stage and/or do not hold sufficient equity at risk. We are the primary beneficiaries of these VIEs because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights, and we control the significant business activities. The noncontrolling interests of JBG SMITH LP do not have substantive liquidation rights, substantive kick-out rights without cause, or substantive participating rights that could be exercised by a simple majority of noncontrolling interest limited partners (including by such a limited partner unilaterally). Because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have these rights, JBG SMITH LP is a VIE. As general partner, we have the power to direct the activities of JBG SMITH LP that most significantly affect its performance, and through our majority interest, we have both the right to receive benefits from and the obligation to absorb losses of JBG SMITH LP. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of JBG SMITH LP and consolidate it in our financial statements. Because we conduct our business and hold our assets and liabilities through JBG SMITH LP, its total assets and liabilities comprise substantially all of our consolidated assets and liabilities. In conjunction with the acquisition of F1RST Residences in December 2019, we entered into a like-kind exchange agreement with a third-party intermediary. As of December 31, 2019, the third-party intermediary was the legal owner of the entity that owned this property. We determined we were the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and accordingly, we consolidated the property and its operations as of the acquisition date. Legal ownership of this entity was transferred to us by the third-party intermediary when the like-kind exchange agreement was completed with the sale of Metropolitan Park in January 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, an under construction multifamily asset at 965 Florida Avenue in Washington, D.C. that we own through a consolidated real estate venture, which we deemed to be a VIE, began placing units into service. As of June 30, 2020, we no longer deemed the venture to be a VIE since it was determined to have sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional support. See Note 9 for additional information. As of June 30, 2020, we had no VIEs other than JBG SMITH LP. As of December 31, 2019, excluding JBG SMITH LP, the two VIEs described above: (i) had aggregate total assets and liabilities of $136.8 million and $11.8 million; and (ii) only the assets of the respective VIE can be used to settle obligations of that VIE, and their creditors have no recourse to our wholly owned assets.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $1.6 billion and $1.4 billion. Our mortgages payable contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and, in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. Certain of our mortgages payable are recourse to us. See Note 17 for additional information. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into a mortgage loan with a principal balance of $175.0 million collateralized by 4747 Bethesda Avenue, and refinanced the mortgage loan collateralized by RTC-West, increasing the principal balance by $20.2 million. In July 2020, we entered into three separate mortgage loans with an aggregate principal balance of $385.0 million, collateralized by The Bartlett, 1221 Van Street and 220 20th Street. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements on certain of our mortgages payable with an aggregate notional value of $945.4 million and $867.6 million. See Note 15 for additional information. Credit Facility As of June 30, 2020, our $1.4 billion credit facility consisted of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in January 2025, a $200.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-1 Term Loan") maturing in January 2023, and a $200.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-2 Term Loan") maturing in July 2024.

As of June 30, 2020, the interest rate swaps mature concurrently with the term loan and provide a weighted average interest rate of 1.14% . As of June 30, 2020, we had a forward-starting swap that became effective on July 20, 2020 with a notional value of $100.0 million, which effectively converted the variable interest rate applicable to the remaining $100.0 million drawn in April 2020 under our Tranche A-1 Loan to a fixed interest rate upon the effective date of the swap. (6) As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $200.0 million and $137.6 million of the outstanding balance was fixed by interest rate swap agreements.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests	9. JBG SMITH LP A portion of the OP Units held by persons other than JBG SMITH are redeemable for cash or, at our election, our common shares, subject to certain limitations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, unitholders redeemed 942,940 and 1.7 million OP Units, which we elected to redeem for an equivalent number of our common shares. As of June 30, 2020, outstanding OP Units totaled 14.2 million, representing a 9.6% ownership interest in JBG SMITH LP. On our balance sheets, our OP Units and certain vested LTIPs are presented at the higher of their redemption value or their carrying value, with such adjustments recognized in "Additional paid-in capital." Redemption value per OP Unit is equivalent to the market value of one of our common shares at the end of the period. In July 2020, unitholders redeemed 81,069 OP Units, which we elected to redeem for an equivalent number of our common shares. Consolidated Real Estate Venture We are a partner in a real estate venture that owns an under construction multifamily asset located at 965 Florida Avenue in Washington, D.C. Pursuant to the terms of the real estate venture agreement, we will fund all capital contributions until our ownership interest reaches a maximum of 97.0%.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Share-Based Payments	11. LTIP and Time-Based LTIP Units During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we granted 381,504 LTIP Units with time-based vesting requirements ("Time-Based LTIP Units") to management and other employees with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $38.52 per unit that vest over four years, 25.0% per year, subject to continued employment. Compensation expense for these units is being recognized over a four-year period. The aggregate grant-date fair value of these Time-Based LTIP Units granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $14.7 million, valued using Monte Carlo simulations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we granted 90,094 fully vested LTIP Units, with a grant-date fair value of $40.13 per unit, to certain executives who elected to receive all or a portion of their cash bonus paid in 2020, related to 2019 service, as LTIP Units. Compensation expense totaling $3.6 million for these LTIP Units was recognized in 2019. In April 2020, as part of their annual compensation, we granted a total of 54,607 fully vested LTIP Units to certain of our trustees with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $1.5 million. The following is a summary of the significant assumptions used to value the LTIP and Time-Based LTIP Units: ​ ​ ​ ​ Expected volatility 18.0% to 29.0% Risk-free interest rate 0.3% to 1.5% Post-grant restriction periods 2 to 3 years ​ Performance-Based LTIP During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we granted 593,100 LTIP Units with performance-based vesting requirements ("Performance-Based LTIP Units") to management and other employees with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $18.67 per unit. Our Performance-Based LTIP Units have a three-year performance period. 50% of any Performance-Based LTIP Units that are earned vest at the end of the three-year performance period and the remaining 50% on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to continued employment. If, however, the Performance-Based LTIP Units do not achieve a positive absolute total shareholder return (“TSR”) at the end of the three-year performance period, but satisfy the relative performance criteria thereof, 50% of the units that otherwise would have been retained will be forfeited, and the remaining 50% will be earned and vest if and when we achieve a positive TSR during the succeeding seven years, measured at the end of each quarter. The aggregate grant-date fair value of the Performance-Based LTIP Units granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020, was $11.1 million, valued using Monte Carlo simulations. Compensation expense for the Performance-Based LTIP Units is being recognized over a four-year period. The following is a summary of the significant assumptions used to value the Performance-Based LTIP Units: ​ ​ ​ ​ Expected volatility 15.0% Dividend yield 2.3% Risk-free interest rate 1.3% ​ ESPP Pursuant to the ESPP, employees purchased 35,307 common shares for $887,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Shareholders' Equity and Earnings Per Common Share	14. Common Shares Repurchased In March 2020, our Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of our outstanding common shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased and retired 1.4 million common shares for $41.2 million, an average purchase price of $29.01 per share. Earnings Per Common Share ​ The following is a summary of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share and a reconciliation of the amounts of net income (loss) available to common shareholders used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per common share to net income (loss): ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended June 30, ​ Six Months Ended June 30, ​ ​ 2020 2019 ​ 2020 2019 ​ ​ (In thousands, except per share amounts) Net income (loss) ​ $ (40,263) ​ $ (3,328) ​ $ 7,912 ​ $ 24,920 Net (income) loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests ​ ​ 3,483 ​ 288 ​ (1,767) ​ (3,099) Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders ​ ​ (36,780) ​ ​ (3,040) ​ ​ 6,145 ​ ​ 21,821 Distributions to participating securities ​ ​ (907) ​ ​ (996) ​ (907) ​ (996) Net income (loss) available to common shareholders — basic and diluted ​ $ (37,687) ​ $ (4,036) ​ $ 5,238 ​ $ 20,825 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Weighted average number of common shares outstanding — basic and diluted ​ ​ 133,613 ​ ​ 131,754 ​ 134,078 ​ 127,189 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Earnings (loss) per common share: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Basic ​ $ (0.28) ​ $ (0.03) ​ $ 0.04 ​ $ 0.16 Diluted ​ $ (0.28) ​ $ (0.03) ​ $ 0.04 ​ $ 0.16 ​ The effect of the redemption of OP Units and Time-Based LTIP Units that were outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 is excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per common share as the assumed exchange of such units for common shares on a one-for-one basis was antidilutive (the assumed redemption of these units would have no impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share). Since OP Units and Time-Based LTIP Units, which are held by noncontrolling interests, are attributed gains at an identical proportion to the common shareholders, the gains attributable and their equivalent weighted average OP Unit and Time-Based LTIP Unit impact are excluded from net income (loss) available to common shareholders and from the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in calculating diluted earnings per common share. Performance-Based LTIP Units, Special Performance-Based LTIP Units and Formation Awards, which totaled 5.2 million and 5.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and 4.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share as they were antidilutive, but potentially could be dilutive in the future.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	15. Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis To manage or hedge our exposure to interest rate risk, we follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had various derivative financial instruments consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The net unrealized loss on our derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges was $52.6 million and $17.7 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and was recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in our balance sheets, of which a portion was reclassified to "Redeemable noncontrolling interests." Within the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $16.0 million as an increase to interest expense. Accounting Standards Codification 820 ("Topic 820"), Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price). Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 — observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair values of the derivative financial instruments are based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and observable inputs. The derivative financial instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The following is a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fair Value Measurements ​ Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 ​ ​ (In thousands) June 30, 2020 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges: ​ ​ ​ ​ Classified as liabilities in "Other liabilities, net" ​ $ 52,558 ​ — ​ $ 52,558 ​ — Derivative financial instruments not designated as cash flow hedges: ​ ​ ​ ​ Classified as assets in "Other assets, net" ​ 46 ​ — ​ 46 ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ December 31, 2019 ​ ​ ​ ​ Derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges: ​ ​ ​ ​ Classified as liabilities in "Other liabilities, net" ​ $ 17,440 ​ — ​ $ 17,440 ​ — ​ The fair values of our derivative financial instruments were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative financial instrument. This analysis reflected the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate market data and implied volatilities in such interest rates. While it was determined that the majority of the inputs used to value the derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under authoritative accounting guidance, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the derivatives also utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. However, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments was assessed, and it was determined that these adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments. As a result, it was determined that the derivative financial instruments in their entirety should be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The net unrealized gains and losses included in "Other comprehensive loss" in our statements of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were attributable to the net change in unrealized gains or losses related to the interest rate swaps that were outstanding during those periods, none of which were reported in our statements of operations as the interest rate swaps were documented and qualified as hedging instruments. Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, all financial instruments and liabilities were reflected in our balance sheets at amounts which, in our estimation, reasonably approximated their fair values, except for the following: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ June 30, 2020 ​ December 31, 2019 ​ Carrying ​ Carrying ​ ​ ​ Amount (1) ​ Fair Value ​ Amount (1) ​ Fair Value ​ (In thousands) Financial liabilities: ​ ​ ​ ​ Mortgages payable ​ $ 1,318,568 ​ $ 1,338,592 ​ $ 1,127,848 ​ $ 1,162,890 Revolving credit facility ​ 500,000 ​ 492,477 ​ 200,000 ​ 200,177 Unsecured term loans ​ 400,000 ​ 395,281 ​ 300,000 ​ 300,607 (1) The carrying amount consists of principal only.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	16. We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, each of our individual properties is a separate operating segment. We defined our reportable segments to be aligned with our method of internal reporting and the way our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), makes key operating decisions, evaluates financial results, allocates resources and manages our business. Accordingly, we aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (commercial, multifamily, and third-party asset management and real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services. The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments, with the exception of the third-party asset management and real estate services business, based on the net operating income ("NOI") of properties within each segment. NOI includes property rental revenue and other property revenue, and deducts property operating expenses and real estate taxes. With respect to the third-party asset management and real estate services business, the CODM reviews revenue streams generated by this segment ("Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements"), as well as the expenses attributable to the segment ("General and administrative: third-party real estate services"), which are both disclosed separately in our statements of operations. The following represents the components of revenue from our third-party real estate services business: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended June 30, ​ Six Months Ended June 30, ​ 2020 2019 ​ 2020 2019 ​ (In thousands) Property management fees ​ $ 4,735 ​ $ 5,687 ​ $ 10,759 ​ $ 11,115 Asset management fees ​ 2,375 ​ 3,547 ​ 5,099 ​ 7,035 Leasing fees ​ 794 ​ 1,085 ​ 2,541 ​ 3,298 Development fees ​ 3,048 ​ 2,533 ​ 5,860 ​ 4,129 Construction management fees ​ 460 ​ 470 ​ 1,473 ​ 1,099 Other service revenue ​ 1,817 ​ 1,738 ​ 3,452 ​ 2,621 Third-party real estate services revenue, excluding reimbursements ​ 13,229 ​ 15,060 ​ 29,184 ​ 29,297 Reimbursements revenue (1) ​ 13,938 ​ 14,427 ​ 27,699 ​ 27,881 Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements ​ ​ 27,167 ​ ​ 29,487 ​ ​ 56,883 ​ ​ 57,178 Third-party real estate services expenses ​ ​ 29,239 ​ ​ 28,710 ​ ​ 58,053 ​ ​ 56,776 Third-party real estate services revenue less expenses ​ $ (2,072) ​ $ 777 ​ $ (1,170) ​ $ 402 (1) Represents reimbursement of expenses incurred by us on behalf of third parties, including allocated payroll costs and amounts paid to third-party contractors for construction management projects.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	17. Commitments and Contingencies Insurance We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $150.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate, and property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.5 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties. We also maintain coverage, through our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, for a portion of the first loss on the above limits and for both terrorist acts and for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence. These policies are partially reinsured by third-party insurance providers. We will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of the insurance coverage, which could be material. Our debt, consisting of mortgages payable secured by our properties, a revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, contains customary covenants requiring adequate insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect the ability to finance or refinance our properties. Construction Commitments As of June 30, 2020, we had construction in progress that will require an additional $52.6 million to complete ($35.3 million related to our consolidated entities and $17.3 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share), based on our current plans and estimates, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next one Environmental Matters Most of our assets have been subject, at some point, to environmental assessments that are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the subject and surrounding assets. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations, or that have not been anticipated and remediated during site redevelopment as required by law. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant cost to us. Environmental liabilities totaled $17.9 million as of both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and are included in "Other liabilities, net" in our balance sheets. Other There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. From time to time, we (or ventures in which we have an ownership interest) have agreed, and may in the future agree with respect to unconsolidated real estate ventures, to (1) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts in connection with borrowings, (2) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) in connection with borrowings or (3) provide guarantees to lenders and other third parties for the completion of development projects. We customarily have agreements with our outside venture partners whereby the partners agree to reimburse the real estate venture or us for their share of any payments made under certain of these guarantees. At times, we also have agreements with certain of our outside venture partners whereby we agree to either indemnify the partners and/or the associated ventures with respect to certain contingent liabilities associated with operating assets or to reimburse our partner for its share of any payments made by them under certain guarantees. Guarantees (excluding environmental) customarily terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying debt. Amounts that we may be required to pay in future periods in relation to guarantees associated with budget overruns or operating losses are not estimable. As of June 30, 2020, we had additional capital commitments and certain recorded guarantees to our unconsolidated real estate ventures totaling $57.2 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had no principal payment guarantees related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures. ​ Additionally, with respect to borrowings of our consolidated entities, we have agreed, and may in the future agree, to (1) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts, (2) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) or (3) provide guarantees to lenders, tenants and other third parties for the completion of development projects. In connection with the Formation Transaction, we have an agreement with Vornado regarding tax matters (the "Tax Matters Agreement") that provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities if the distribution of JBG SMITH shares by Vornado, together with certain related transactions, is determined not to be tax-free. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, we may be required to indemnify Vornado against any taxes and related amounts and costs resulting from a violation by us of the Tax Matters Agreement.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Transactions with Related Parties	18. Our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to third parties, the WHI, Amazon and the JBG Legacy Funds. We provide services for the benefit of the JBG Legacy Funds that own interests in the assets retained by the JBG Legacy Funds. In connection with the contribution to us of the assets formerly owned by the JBG Legacy Funds as part of the Formation Transaction, the general partner and managing member interests in the JBG Legacy Funds that were held by certain former JBG executives (and who became members of our management team and/or Board of Trustees) were not transferred to us and remain under the control of these individuals. In addition, certain members of our senior management and Board of Trustees have an ownership interest in the JBG Legacy Funds and own carried interests in each fund and in certain of our real estate ventures that entitle them to receive cash payments if the fund or real estate venture achieves certain return thresholds. The WHI was launched by us and the Federal City Council in June 2018 as a scalable market-driven model that uses private capital to help address the scarcity of housing for middle income families. We are the manager for the WHI Impact Pool, which is the social impact investment vehicle of the WHI. As of June 30, 2020, the WHI Impact Pool had completed closings of capital commitments totaling $106.5 million, which included a commitment from us of $10.4 million. The third-party real estate services revenue, including expense reimbursements, from the JBG Legacy Funds and the WHI Impact Pool was $4.7 million and $12.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and $10.0 million and $18.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had receivables from the JBG Legacy Funds and the WHI Impact Pool totaling $8.4 million and $6.2 million for such services. We rented our former corporate offices from an unconsolidated real estate venture and made payments totaling $2.4 million and $3.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and $1.3 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. In November 2019, we relocated our corporate headquarters. Upon the relocation of our corporate headquarters, we impaired the right-of-use asset due to our change in the use of the asset. ​ We have agreements with Building Maintenance Services ("BMS"), an entity in which we have a minor preferred interest, to supervise cleaning, engineering and security services at our properties. We paid BMS $3.3 million and $8.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and $5.4 million and $10.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 which is included in "Property operating expenses" in our statements of operations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information required in annual financial statements and notes as required under GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JBG SMITH and our wholly owned subsidiaries and those other entities, including JBG SMITH LP, in which we have a controlling financial interest, including where we have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). See Note 5 for additional information on our VIEs. The portions of the equity and net income (loss) of consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable to JBG SMITH are presented separately as amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated financial statements. References to our financial statements refer to our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

References to our statements of cash flows refer to our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. We intend to adhere to these requirements and maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by subsidiary entities which have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the income from these activities. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) (P.L. 116-136) that was enacted on March 27, 2020 includes several significant tax provisions that could impact us and our taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"). These changes include: ● the elimination of the taxable income limit for net operating losses ("NOLs") for all taxable years beginning before January 1, 2021, thereby permitting corporate taxpayers to use NOLs to fully offset taxable income (although we, as a REIT, will continue to only be able to use NOLs against taxable income remaining after taking into account any dividends paid deduction); ● the ability for our TRSs to utilize carryback NOLs arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to the five taxable years preceding the taxable year of the loss; ● an increase of the business interest limitation under Section 163(j) of the Code from 30% to 50% for taxable years beginning in 2019 and 2020, and the addition of an election by taxpayers to use their 2019 adjusted taxable income as their adjusted taxable income in 2020 for purposes of applying the limitation; and ● a “technical correction” amending Section 168(e)(3)(E) of the Code to add “qualified improvement property” to “15-year property” and assigning a class life of 20-years under Section 168(g)(3)(B) of the Code to qualified improvement property under Section 168(e)(3)(E)(vii) of the Code . During the six months ended June 30, 2020, as a result of the CARES Act, we made adjustments to the net deferred tax liability amounts, which relate to “qualified improvement property” owned by our TRSs.

Summary of Significant Accoun_2

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates include: (i) the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment; (ii) the determination of useful lives for tangible and intangible assets; and (iii) the assessment of the collectability of receivables, including deferred rent receivables. Due to the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, commencing in March 2020, authorities in jurisdictions where our properties are located issued stay-at-home orders and restrictions on travel and permitted businesses operations. The effects of COVID-19 have most significantly impacted the operations of many of our retail tenants, which generated approximately 7% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019, our commercial parking revenue and our interest in the operations of the Crystal City Marriott and The Marriott Wardman Park hotels. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts us and our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain. The extent and duration of the stay-at-home orders and other effects of COVID-19 on us and our tenants will affect estimates used in the preparation of the underlying cash flows used in assessing our long-lived assets for impairment and the assessment of the collectability of receivables from tenants, including deferred rent receivables. We have made what we believe to be appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date. To the extent these estimates differ from actual results, our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform ("Topic 848"). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. ​ COVID-19 Lease Modification Accounting Relief Due to the business disruptions and challenges severely affecting the global economy caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have provided rent deferrals and other lease concessions to certain of our tenants. In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a Staff Q&A that allows lessors to elect not to evaluate whether lease-related relief provided to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 is a lease modification under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases ("Topic 842") if certain criteria are met. This election allows us to bypass a lease-by-lease analysis, and instead choose to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have elected to apply the lease modification policy relief and have accounted for lease-related relief provided to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 as lease modifications under Topic 842, regardless of whether the right to such relief was embedded within the terms of the lessee’s lease. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into rent deferral agreements with certain of our tenants, many of which were placed on the cash basis of accounting, resulting in the deferral to future periods of $1.2 million of rent that had been contractually due in the second quarter. We are in the process of negotiating additional rent deferrals and other lease concessions with some of our tenants. ​ During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $3.6 million and $4.7 million of credit losses against billed rent receivables and $2.0 million and $3.6 million against deferred (straight-line) rent receivables due to the effects of COVID-19 related to certain of our tenants, primarily our retail tenants, that are unable to pay rent while businesses are closed or not operating at full capacity. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we also recorded $2.4 million of reserves against receivables from one of our parking operators that filed for bankruptcy protection. Additionally, in connection with the preparation and review of our second quarter 2020 financial statements, we determined that our investment in the venture that owns The Marriott Wardman Park hotel was impaired due to a decline in the fair value of the underlying asset and recorded an impairment charge of $6.5 million, reducing the net book value of our investment to zero (see Note 4 for additional information).
