[1] Such activity represents the acquisition of a property completed by SST VI OP, which as of the acquisition date was consolidated within our consolidated financial statements. On May 1, 2021, we deconsolidated SST VI OP as we were no longer the primary beneficiary, which resulted in the removal of such facility from our consolidated balance sheet. Our investment in SST VI OP is now included within “Investments in and advances to managed REITs” within our consolidated balance sheet.
