During the fourth quarter of 2015, 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 debt liability for all periods presented.  Only deferred financing costs associated with our credit facility remain in deferred costs (assets) on the consolidated balance sheets. See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for revisions to the accounting guidance for deferred financing costs.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company capitalized internal direct leasing costs of $6.6 million, $7.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively, in accordance with the accounting standard for the capitalization of leasing costs.
