The following table summarizes our property dispositions for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2016		2015		2014

Gain on Sale of Real Estate (A)	$	68,202	$	48,906	$	25,905

(A) Gross proceeds from the sale of real estate and gain on sale of real estate includes the sale of several land parcels for years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

The 29 industrial properties sold during the year ended December 31, 2014 meet the criteria to be included in discontinued operations. Therefore the results of operations and gain on sale of real estate for the 29 industrial properties sold are included in discontinued operations. The results of operations and loss on sale of real estate for the several land parcels, which do not meet the criteria to be included in discontinued operations, are included in continuing operations. As discussed in Note 2, we adopted the new accounting standard relating to discontinued operations on January 1, 2015. There were no sales of industrial properties during the years ended ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 that met the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations.

The following table discloses the components of our discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014:

	Year Ended December 31, 2014
Total Revenues	$	7,007
Property Expenses	(2,784		)
Depreciation and Amortization	(2,388		)
Gain on Sale of Real Estate	25,988
Income from Discontinued Operations	$	27,823

Impairment Charge

The impairment charge of $626 recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015 was due to marketing certain industrial properties for sale and our assessment of the likelihood and timing of a potential sale transaction. The fair market values were determined using third party offers. Valuations based on third party offers include bona fide contract prices and letter of intent amounts that we believe are indicative of fair value and fall into Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
