Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Jun. 30, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Text Block]	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) for a fair statement of the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and its cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Parent Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in their combined 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2014. Reclassifications Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior years to conform to the current year presentation, including the reclassification of notes receivable to other assets within the balance sheets and the reclassification of changes in escrow balances from operating cash flows to investing cash flows in the statements of cash flows. All other reclassifications are related to the treatment of sold properties as discontinued operations on the statement of operations for all periods presented. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements below for revisions to the accounting guidance for discontinued operations. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires the disclosure of sufficient quantitative and qualitative information for financial statement users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and associated cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption precluded. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2014 the FASB issued revised guidance on discontinued operations and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. The update revises the definition to include only disposals involving a strategic shift that has a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results when the disposal asset or group meets the existing criterion for treatment as held for sale. Examples of a strategic shift include the withdrawal from a major geographic area, line of business, equity method investment or any other major parts of a business, as applicable. A component of the entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity. In addition, the revised standard no longer precludes presentation as a discontinued operation if there are operations and cash flows of the component that have not been eliminated from the reporting entity’s ongoing operations, or if there is significant continuing involvement with a component after its disposal. The amendments require additional disclosures about discontinued operations including; the major classes of net income or loss where net income is otherwise presented, the operating and investing cash flows of discontinued operations where net income is otherwise presented, depreciation, amortization, capital expenditures and significant operating and investing non-cash items of the discontinued operation for the periods in which net income is otherwise presented and, if there is a non-controlling interest, the related allocation to the parent company. Application is prospective, and required for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. This update should not be applied to assets classified as held for sale before the effective date even if the component of an entity is disposed of after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted for disposals or assets held for sale that have not been reported in the financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard as of January 1, 2014. All properties sold or determined held for sale prior to January 1, 2014 are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

	$	4,689,892	$	4,669,289

Acquisitions

As of June 30, 2014, a $0.5 million gain on remeasurement of the Company's investment in partnerships with Parkway Properties, Inc. was recorded. On December 19, 2013, the Company increased its equity ownership interest from 25% to 99% in each of the two partnerships that own One and Two Commerce Square, two 41-story trophy-class office towers in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had recorded a $1.6 million net receivable balance from its former partner which represented the former partner's portion of the net current assets (liabilities) pursuant to the terms of the Commerce Square Redemption Agreement. Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, the Company and Parkway used an agreed upon settlement period to finalize the purchase accounting related to facts and circumstances that existed at the date of the acquisition but were not fully known at such time. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, $2.1 million of consideration was received from the former partner in full settlement of the aforementioned provision and a measurement period adjustment was made to adjust the fair value of the Company's previously held equity investment, resulting in a gain on remeasurement of the Company's investment in the partnerships of $0.5 million. For additional information related to this transaction, see the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

On February 19, 2014, the Company acquired 54.1 acres of undeveloped land known as Encino Trace in Austin, Texas for $14.0 million. The land is fully entitled with a site plan and building permits in place allowing for the development of two four-story office buildings containing approximately 320,000 net rentable square feet. The purchase price included an in-place lease, which was placed into construction in progress. As such, the Company has treated this transaction as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets. The Company capitalized $8.4 million in construction in progress, recorded $4.6 million in land inventory and recorded a deposit for a portion of the future development fee held in escrow for $1.0 million. The net assets were purchased using available corporate funds.

As of June 30, 2014, both of the office buildings at Encino Trace are currently in development with $18.7 million, inclusive of the $14.0 million acquisition cost, funded through June 30, 2014. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company reclassified the $4.6 million remaining in land inventory to construction in progress in connection with commencing development of the second building. Additional project costs will be funded over the remaining construction period, which is scheduled to be completed during the second quarter of 2015.

Dispositions

On April 16, 2014, the Company sold a 5.3 acre parcel of land located in Dallas, Texas for a sales price of $1.6 million resulting in a nominal gain on sale after closing and other transaction related costs. The land parcel was undeveloped as of the date of sale.

On April 7, 2014, the Company received $0.9 million from an escrow account that was established in connection with the sale of eight office properties containing 800,546 square feet in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, known as "Princeton Pike Corporate Center." The sale of Princeton Pike Corporate Center was completed on February 25, 2013 for an aggregate sales price of $121.0 million and resulted in a $5.3 million gain on sale after closing and other transaction related costs. The escrow account was funded with $2.0 million at closing and was established for use by the buyer to fund certain tenant improvement projects with any unused portion to be returned to the Company. The unused amount received from the escrow account was recognized as a gain on sale during the period ended June 30, 2014. The aforementioned gain was recognized within discontinued operations which is consistent with the accounting classification of the assets that were disposed of on February 25, 2013.

On April 3, 2014, the Company contributed two 3-story, Class A office buildings, containing an aggregate of approximately 192,396 net rentable square feet known as Four Points Centre in Austin, Texas to an existing real estate venture (the "Austin Venture") that the Company formed in 2013 with G&I VII Austin Office LLC, an investment vehicle advised by DRA Advisors LLC ("DRA"). The Company contributed the properties to the Austin Venture at an agreed upon value of $41.5 million. In conjunction with the contribution: (i) the Austin Venture obtained a $29.0 million mortgage loan; (ii) the DRA member contributed $5.9 million in net cash to the capital of the Austin Venture; and (iii) the Austin Venture distributed $34.4 million to the Company and credited the Company with a $5.9 million capital contribution to the Austin Venture. The Company incurred a $0.2 million loss on the contribution, driven primarily by closing costs. The disposal of Four Points Centre does not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. Accordingly, the property remains classified within continuing operations.

On March 27, 2014, the Company sold a 16.8 acre undeveloped parcel of land located in Austin, Texas for a sales price of $3.5 million resulting in a $1.2 million gain on sale of undepreciated real estate after closing and other transaction related costs. The land parcel was undeveloped as of the date of sale.

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED VENTURES

As of June 30, 2014, the Company held ownership interests in 17 unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures, of which $186.0 million is included in assets and $1.2 million is included in other liabilities relating to the negative investment balance of one real estate venture. The Company formed or acquired interests in these ventures with unaffiliated third parties to develop or manage office properties or to acquire land in anticipation of possible development of office or residential properties. As of June 30, 2014, 11 of the Real Estate Ventures owned 56 office buildings that contain an aggregate of approximately 5.9 million net rentable square feet; two Real Estate Ventures owned 3.8 acres of undeveloped parcels of land; three Real Estate Venture owned 22.5-acres of land under active development and one Real Estate Venture owned a hotel property that contains 137 rooms in Conshohocken, PA.

The Company accounts for its unconsolidated interests in its Real Estate Ventures using the equity method. The Company’s unconsolidated interests range from 20% to 65%, subject to specified priority allocations of distributable cash in certain of the Real Estate Ventures.

The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity and income) are based on the historical financial information of the individual Real Estate Ventures. The Company does not record operating losses of the Real Estate Ventures in excess of its investment balance unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the Real Estate Venture or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the Real Estate Venture.

The following is a summary of the financial position of the Real Estate Ventures as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

Company’s share of equity (Company’s basis) (a)	186,042		(b)	180,512

(a) This amount includes the effect of the basis difference between the Company's historical cost basis and the basis recorded at the Real Estate Venture level, which is typically amortized over the life of the related assets and liabilities. Basis differentials occur from the impairment of investments, purchases of third party interests in existing Real Estate Ventures and upon the transfer of assets that were previously owned by the Company into a Real Estate Venture. In addition, certain acquisition, transaction and other costs may not be reflected in the net assets at the Real Estate Venture level.

(b) Does not include the negative investment balance of one real estate venture totaling $1.2 million as of June 30, 2014, which is included in other liabilities.

The Company held interests in 17 Real Estate Ventures containing an aggregate of approximately 5.9 million net rentable square feet as of the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 17 Real Estate Ventures containing an aggregate of approximately 6.2 million net rentable square feet as of the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013.

(a)	These loans were assumed upon acquisition of the related properties. The interest rate reflects the market rate at the time of acquisition.


(b)	Represents the full debt amount secured by a property owned by a consolidated real estate venture in which the Company holds a 50% interest.


(c)	London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”).

During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s weighted-average effective interest rate on its mortgage notes payable was 5.73% and 6.64%, respectively.

The Parent Company unconditionally guarantees the unsecured debt obligations of the Operating Partnership (or is a co-borrower with the Operating Partnership) but does not by itself incur unsecured indebtedness. The Parent Company has no material assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.

The Company utilizes its unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") for general business purposes, including funding costs of acquisitions, developments and redevelopments and repayment of other debt. The scheduled maturity date of the Credit Facility in place at June 30, 2014 is February 1, 2016. The per annum variable interest rate on balances outstanding under the Credit Facility is LIBOR plus 1.50%. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment upon a change in the Company’s unsecured debt ratings. As of June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings on its Credit Facility, with $1.5 million in letters of credit outstanding, leaving $598.5 million of unused availability under the Credit Facility. During each of the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were no weighted-average interest rates associated with the Credit Facility because there were no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility during either period.

The Company has the option to increase the amounts available to be advanced under the Credit Facility, the $150.0 million three-year term loan, and the $100.0 million four-year term loan by an aggregate of $200.0 million, subject to customary conditions and limitations, by obtaining additional commitments from the current lenders and other financial institutions. The Company also has the option to extend by one year the maturity dates of each of the Credit Facility, the $150.0 million three-year term loan and the $100.0 million four-year term loan subject to payment of an extension fee and other customary conditions and limitations. The Company may repay the $150.0 million three-year term loan and the $100.0 million four-year term loan at any time without penalty. The $200.0 million seven-year term loan is subject to a prepayment penalty of 1.00% through February 1, 2015 with no penalty thereafter.

The spread to LIBOR for LIBOR-based loans under the Credit Facility and term loans depends on the Company's unsecured senior debt credit rating. Based on the Company's current credit rating, the spread for such loans will be 150 basis points under the Credit Facility, 175 basis points under both the $150.0 million three-year term loan and the $100.0 million four-year term loan and 190 basis points under the $200.0 million seven-year term loan. At the Company's option, advances under the Credit Facility and term loans may also bear interest at a per annum floating rate equal to the higher of the prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum. The Credit Facility contains a competitive bid option that allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid on loans to the Company at a reduced rate.

The Company executed hedging transactions that fix the rate on the $200.0 million seven-year term loan at a 3.623% average rate for its full term, and the rate on the $150.0 million three-year term loan at a 2.596% average rate for periods of three to four years. All hedges commenced on February 1, 2012 and the rates are inclusive of the LIBOR spread based on the Company's current investment grade rating. See Note 9 for details of the interest rate swaps entered into as of June 30, 2014.

The Credit Facility and term loans contain financial and operating covenants and restrictions. The Company was in compliance with all such restrictions and financial covenants as of June 30, 2014. In the event of a default related to the financing and operating covenants, the Company's dividend distributions are limited to the greater of 95% of funds from operations or the minimum amount necessary for the Company to maintain its status as a REIT.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s aggregate scheduled principal payments on debt obligations, excluding amortization of discounts and premiums, were as follows (in thousands):



2014 (six months remaining)	$	225,570

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company determined the fair values disclosed below using available market information and discounted cash flow analyses as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The discount rate used in calculating fair value is the sum of the current risk free rate and the risk premium on the date of measurement of the instruments or obligations. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and to develop the related estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize upon disposition. The use of different estimates and valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the fair value amounts shown. The Company believes that the carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

The following are financial instruments for which the Company’s estimates of fair value differ from the carrying amounts (in thousands):



	June 30, 2014				December 31, 2013
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Unsecured notes payable	$	1,397,162	$	1,478,767	$	1,396,620	$	1,471,041
Variable rate debt	$	528,610	$	504,044	$	528,610	$	526,693
Mortgage notes payable	$	662,478	$	697,731	$	670,151	$	715,244
Notes receivable	$	4,226	$	5,088	$	7,026	$	7,759

The fair value of the Company's unsecured notes payable are categorized as Level 2 (as provided by the accounting standard for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures), as these instruments are valued using quoted market prices as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

The fair value of the variable rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities, as applicable. The fair value of the mortgage debt was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a blended market rate for fully secured loans with similar terms and maturities. The weighted average discount rate for the combined variable rate debt and mortgage loans as of June 30, 2014 was 3.467%. The fair value of the notes receivable was estimated using the expected cash flows of the notes receivable, and discounting those cash flows using the market rate of interest for mortgage notes with a comparable level of risk. The Company used a discount rate of 14.82% for the notes receivable as of June 30, 2014. The Company applies its knowledge of the debt markets to determine appropriate discount rates to utilize in the discounted cash flow models. As these inputs are unobservable, the Company has categorized the valuation of mortgage notes payable, variable rate debt and notes receivable as Level 3 (as provided by the accounting standard for Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures).

Disclosure about the fair value of financial instruments is based upon pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2014, and current estimates of fair value may differ from the amounts presented herein.

(a) Hedging unsecured variable rate debt.

The Company measures its derivative instruments at fair value and records them in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability. As of June 30, 2014, all swaps are included in other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Redeemable common limited partnership units totaling 1,763,739 as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computations because they are not dilutive.

Unvested restricted shares are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, earnings representing nonforfeitable dividends as noted in the table above were allocated to the unvested restricted shares issued to the Company’s executives and other employees under the Company's shareholder-approved long-term incentive plan.

Common and Preferred Shares

On May 29, 2014, the Parent Company declared a distribution of $0.15 per common share, totaling $23.6 million, which was paid on July 21, 2014 to shareholders of record as of July 7, 2014. In addition, the Parent Company declared distributions on its Series E Preferred Shares to holders of record as of June 30, 2014. These shares are entitled to a preferential return of 6.90% per annum on the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. Distributions paid on July 15, 2014 to holders of Series E Preferred Shares totaled $1.7 million.

On May 15, 2014, the Company amended its Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust authorizing an increase in the Company’s total number of shares of beneficial interest from 220,000,000 to 420,000,000 shares, with the number of authorized common shares of beneficial interest increased from 200,000,000 to 400,000,000 and the number of authorized preferred shares of beneficial interest remaining unchanged at 20,000,000.

On November 5, 2013, the Parent Company commenced a continuous equity offering program (the “Offering Program”), under which it may sell, in at-the-market offerings, up to an aggregate amount of 16,000,000 common shares until November 5, 2016. The Parent Company may sell common shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the Parent Company. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Parent Company, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common shares and determinations by the Parent Company of the appropriate sources of funding. Sales agents engaged by the Parent Company under the Offering Program are entitled to receive, as compensation and in aggregate, up to 2% of the gross sales price per share sold under the Offering Program. From inception of the Offering Program through June 30, 2014, the Parent Company had not sold any shares under the program, leaving 16,000,000 remaining shares available for sale.

Common Share Repurchases

The Parent Company maintains a share repurchase program under which it may repurchase its common shares from time to time in accordance with limits set by the Board of Trustees.

The Parent Company did not repurchase any shares under the share repurchase program during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. As of June 30, 2014, the Parent Company may purchase up to 539,200 shares under the program.

Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and compliance with legal requirements. The share repurchase program does not contain any time limitation and does not obligate the Parent Company to repurchase any shares. The Parent Company may discontinue the program at any time.

Unvested restricted units are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, earnings representing nonforfeitable dividends as noted in the table above were allocated to the unvested restricted units issued to the Parent Company’s executives and other employees under the Parent Company's shareholder-approved long-term incentive plan.

Common Partnership Units and Preferred Mirror Units

The common partnership units not held by the Parent Company have the same economic characteristics as the Parent Company's common shares and share proportionately in the net income or loss and in any distributions of the Operating Partnership. The common partnership units not held by the Parent Company are redeemable at any time at the option of the holder, and the Parent Company, as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, may at its option elect to settle the redemption in cash or through the exchange on a one-for-one basis with common shares of the Parent Company. Similarly, the Series E-Linked Preferred Mirror Units of the Operating Partnership have the same economic characteristics as the Series E Preferred Shares of the Parent Company. Whenever the Parent Company issues common shares or preferred shares, it contributes the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for, as applicable, an equal number of common partnership units or preferred units that mirror the economic terms of the preferred shares.

On May 29, 2014, the Operating Partnership declared a distribution of $0.15 per common partnership unit, totaling $23.9 million, which was paid on July 21, 2014 to unitholders of record as of July 7, 2014. On May 29, 2014, the Operating Partnership declared distributions on its Series E-Linked Preferred Mirror Units to holders of record as of June 30, 2014. These units are entitled to a preferential return of 6.90% per annum on the $25.00 per unit liquidation preference. Distributions paid on July 15, 2014 to holders of Series E-Linked Preferred Mirror Units totaled $1.7 million.

Common Unit Repurchases

The Parent Company did not repurchase any shares under its share repurchase program in either of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and accordingly, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Operating Partnership did not repurchase any units in connection with the Parent Company’s share repurchase program.

At June 30, 2014, options exercisable for 2,808,784 common shares were outstanding under the Parent Company's shareholder approved equity incentive plan (referred to as the "Equity Incentive Plan"). During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 the Company recognized a nominal amount of compensation expense related to unvested options. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 the Company recognized compensation expense related to unvested options of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, of which a nominal amount and $0.1 million, respectively, were capitalized consistent with the Company’s policies for capitalizing eligible portions of employee compensation.

Option activity as of June 30, 2014 and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2014 were as follows:



	Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2014	2,983,569		$	15.50	5.15	$	—

Vested/Exercisable at June 30, 2014	2,808,784		$	15.37	4.67	$	632,239

Restricted Share Awards

As of June 30, 2014, 550,222 restricted shares were outstanding under the Equity Incentive Plan and vest over three years from the initial grant dates. The remaining compensation expense to be recognized at June 30, 2014 was approximately $2.9 million, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting period of 1.9 years. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized compensation expense related to outstanding restricted shares of $0.5 million and $1.9 million, of which $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, were capitalized as part of the Company’s review of employee salaries eligible for capitalization. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized compensation expense related to outstanding restricted shares of $0.9 million and $1.8 million, of which $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, were capitalized consistent with the Company’s policies for capitalizing eligible portions of employee compensation.

The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted share activity for the six months ended June 30, 2014:



	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair value
Non-vested at January 1, 2014	563,713		$	12.56
Granted	229,119		14.47
Vested	(234,169	)	13.44
Forfeited	(8,441	)	12.36
Non-vested at June 30, 2014	550,222		$	12.22

On March 11, 2014 and March 12, 2014 the Compensation Committee of the Parent Company’s Board of Trustees awarded restricted shares of which 131,641 cliff vest after three years from the grant date and 69,794 vest ratably over three years, of which 1,745 were canceled, leaving 68,049 unvested. In addition, on May 29, 2014, 27,684 restricted shares were granted and will vest ratably over three years. Restricted shares that cliff vest are subject to acceleration upon a change in control or if the recipient of the award were to die, become disabled or, in certain cases, retire in a qualifying retirement. Qualifying retirement generally means the recipient’s voluntary termination of employment after reaching at least age 57 and accumulating at least 15 years of service with the Company. In accordance with the accounting standard for stock-based compensation, the Company amortizes stock-based compensation costs through the qualifying retirement dates for those executives who meet the conditions for qualifying retirement during the scheduled vesting period.

Restricted Performance Share Units Plan

The Compensation Committee of the Parent Company’s Board of Trustees has granted performance share-based awards (referred to as Restricted Performance Share Units, or RPSUs) to officers of the Parent Company. The RPSUs are settled in common shares, with the number of common shares issuable in settlement determined based on the Company’s total shareholder return over specified measurement periods compared to total shareholder returns of comparative groups over the measurement periods. The table below presents certain information as to RPSU awards.



Grant Date	Measurement Period Commencement Date	Measurement Period End Date	Fair Value of Units on Grant Date (in thousands)		Units Granted	Units Canceled		Units Vested ^(a)		Unvested Balance
3/1/2012	1/1/2012	12/31/2014	$	4,273	265,222	(38,959	)	(14,742	)	211,521
2/25/2013	1/1/2013	12/31/2015	4,137		231,093	(27,698	)			203,395
3/11/2014	1/1/2014	12/31/2016	2,624		134,284					134,284
3/12/2014	1/1/2014	12/31/2016	1,225		61,720					61,720

(a) These RPSUs were settled upon the holder’s qualifying retirement in October 2012 after reaching age 57 and accumulating at least 15 years of service with the Company. Of the 14,742 RPSU's originally granted, 563 dividend equivalent rights were accrued at the time of qualifying retirement and the Company issued 30,610 shares in settlement of the RPSU's based on the Company’s total shareholder return-based performance achievement, as computed under the award agreement, on October 31, 2012 of 200%.

The Company values each RPSU on its grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair values of each award are being amortized over the three year cliff vesting period. The vesting of RPSUs is subject to acceleration upon a change in control or if the recipient of the award were to die, become disabled or retire in a qualifying retirement prior to the vesting date.

Net operating income (“NOI”) is an non-GAAP measure that is defined as total revenue less property operating expenses, real estate taxes and third party management expenses. Segment NOI includes revenue, real estate taxes and property operating expenses directly related to operation and management of the properties owned and managed within the respective geographical region. Segment NOI excludes property level depreciation and amortization, revenue and expenses directly associated with third party real estate management services, expenses associated with corporate administrative support services, and inter-company eliminations. NOI also does not reflect general and administrative expenses, interest expenses, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital expenditures and leasing costs. Trends in development and construction activities that could materially impact the Company’s results from operations are also not reflected in NOI. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. NOI is the measure that is used by the Company to evaluate the operating performance of its real estate assets by segment. The Company also believes that NOI provides useful information to investors regarding its financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expenses recorded at the property level. The Company believes that net income, as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. The following is a reconciliation of consolidated NOI to consolidated net income (loss), as defined by GAAP:

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES [Text Block]

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved from time to time in litigation on various matters, including disputes with tenants and disputes arising out of agreements to purchase or sell properties. Given the nature of the Company’s business activities, these lawsuits are considered routine to the conduct of its business. The result of any particular lawsuit cannot be predicted, because of the very nature of litigation, the litigation process and its adversarial nature, and the jury system. The Company will establish reserves for specific legal proceedings when we determine that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and when the amount of loss is reasonably estimable. The Company does not expect that the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Environmental

As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. The Company’s compliance with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations, and the Company does not believe it will have a material adverse effect in the future. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on its current Properties or on properties that the Company may acquire.

Ground Rent

Future minimum rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable ground leases under which the Company is the lessee are expensed on a straight-line basis regardless of when payments are due. The Company’s ground leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 7 to 75 years. Minimum future rental payments on non-cancelable leases at June 30, 2014 are as follows (in thousands):



2014 (six months remaining)	$	690
2015	1,380
2016	1,380
2017	1,380
2018	1,380
Thereafter	58,516
Total	$	64,726

The Company obtained ground tenancy rights related to two properties in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which provide for contingent rent participation by the lessor in certain capital transactions and net operating cash flows of the properties after certain returns are achieved by the Company. Such amounts, if any, will be reflected as contingent rent when incurred. The leases also provide for payment by the Company of certain operating costs relating to the land, primarily real estate taxes. The above schedule of future minimum rental payments does not include any contingent rent amounts or any reimbursed expenses. Reference is made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for further detail regarding commitments and contingencies.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) for a fair statement of the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2014, the results of its operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and its cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Parent Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in their combined 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2014.
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Reclassifications Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior years to conform to the current year presentation, including the reclassification of notes receivable to other assets within the balance sheets and the reclassification of changes in escrow balances from operating cash flows to investing cash flows in the statements of cash flows. All other reclassifications are related to the treatment of sold properties as discontinued operations on the statement of operations for all periods presented. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements below for revisions to the accounting guidance for discontinued operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance requiring revenue to be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires the disclosure of sufficient quantitative and qualitative information for financial statement users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and associated cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption precluded. The Company has not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. In April 2014 the FASB issued revised guidance on discontinued operations and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. The update revises the definition to include only disposals involving a strategic shift that has a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results when the disposal asset or group meets the existing criterion for treatment as held for sale. Examples of a strategic shift include the withdrawal from a major geographic area, line of business, equity method investment or any other major parts of a business, as applicable. A component of the entity comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the entity. In addition, the revised standard no longer precludes presentation as a discontinued operation if there are operations and cash flows of the component that have not been eliminated from the reporting entity’s ongoing operations, or if there is significant continuing involvement with a component after its disposal. The amendments require additional disclosures about discontinued operations including; the major classes of net income or loss where net income is otherwise presented, the operating and investing cash flows of discontinued operations where net income is otherwise presented, depreciation, amortization, capital expenditures and significant operating and investing non-cash items of the discontinued operation for the periods in which net income is otherwise presented and, if there is a non-controlling interest, the related allocation to the parent company. Application is prospective, and required for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. This update should not be applied to assets classified as held for sale before the effective date even if the component of an entity is disposed of after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted for disposals or assets held for sale that have not been reported in the financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard as of January 1, 2014. All properties sold or determined held for sale prior to January 1, 2014 are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
