Based on capital contribution and distribution provisions in the joint venture agreement, we expect our economic interest in the venture's cash flow to be greater than indicated in the Ownership column, which states our legal interest in this venture. As of June 30, 2016, based upon the liquidation proceeds we would receive from a hypothetical liquidation of our investment based on depreciated book value, our estimated economic interest in the venture was approximately 98%. Our economic interest may fluctuate based on a number of factors, including mortgage financing, partnership capital contributions and distributions, and proceeds from gains or losses of asset sales.
|
|
|
(3) |
The negative carrying value is due to the distributions of proceeds from mortgage loans and quarterly distributions of excess cash flow exceeding the original contributions from the partners. |

Our investments in real estate joint ventures are reduced by the percentage of the profits earned for leasing and development services associated with our ownership interest in each joint venture. Our carrying value of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures differs from our share of the assets reported in the "Summary Balance Sheets - Unconsolidated Joint Ventures" shown below due to adjustments to the book basis, including intercompany profits on sales of services that are capitalized by the unconsolidated joint ventures. The differences in basis (totaling $4.4 million and $3.9 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively) are amortized over the various useful lives of the related assets.
Westgate
As described in Note 3, we acquired our partners' interest in the Westgate joint venture and have consolidated the property for financial reporting purposes since the acquisition date.
Columbus
In June 2016, we opened an approximately 355,000 square foot outlet center in Columbus, Ohio. As of June 30, 2016, we and our partner had each contributed $35.8 million to fund development activities. The projected total net cost of the development is estimated to be approximately $94.9 million.We are providing property management, marketing and leasing services to the joint venture. During construction, our partner provided development services to the joint venture and we, along with our partner, provided joint leasing services.
Savannah
In May 2016, we expanded our outlet center in Savannah by approximately 42,000 square feet, bringing the outlet center's total gross leasable area to approximately 419,000 square feet.
