On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief and rejected its lease. The center is also anchored by a 50,000 square foot Burlington, a 46,000 square foot Bed Bath & Beyond and a 36,000 square foot Marshalls;

On January 10, 2019, Kohl’s announced that it plans to close and sublease its store at the property; Kohl’s remains obligated to us under its lease which expires in January 2031.

Property to be developed
 
Rego Park III, a 140,000 square foot land parcel adjacent to the Rego Park II shopping center in Queens, at the intersection of Junction Boulevard and the Horace Harding Service Road.
 
We have determined that our properties have similar economic characteristics and meet the criteria that permit the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment (the leasing, management, development and redeveloping of properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area).  Our chief operating decision-maker assesses and measures segment operating results based on a performance measure referred to as net operating income at the individual operating segment.  Net operating income for each property represents net rental revenues less operating expenses.
