Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidation Basis of Accounting	Liquidation Basis of Accounting As a result of the approval of the Liquidation Plan by the stockholders, the Company adopted the liquidation basis of accounting as of January 1, 2017 and for the periods subsequent to December 31, 2016 in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, on January 1, 2017, the carrying value of the Company’s assets were adjusted to their liquidation value, which represented the estimated amount of cash that the Company expected to collect on disposal of assets as it carried out its liquidation activities under the Liquidation Plan. All properties have been sold except the remaining interest in Worldwide Plaza. For purposes of liquidation accounting, which requires estimating go-forward revenues and expenses including net sale proceeds, the Company’s estimate of net assets in liquidation value assumes a sale of Worldwide Plaza at June 30,2025, which is the end of our current projected liquidation period as discussed below. The actual timing of sale has not yet been determined and is subject to future events and uncertainties. These estimates are subject to change based on the actual timing of sale of the Company’s remaining property. Liabilities are carried at their contractual amounts due as adjusted for the timing and other assumptions related to the liquidation process. The Company accrues costs and revenues that it expects to incur and earn as it carries out its liquidation activities through the end of the projected liquidation period to the extent it has a reasonable basis for estimation. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, it is generally accepted that the period of time to assume a reasonable basis for estimation would not exceed one year from the reporting date. As such, our current projected liquidation period ends on June 30, 2025. Estimated costs expected to be incurred through the end of the liquidation period include corporate overhead costs associated with satisfying known and contingent liabilities and other costs associated with the winding down and dissolution of the Company. Revenues are based on current interest rate assumptions. These amounts are classified as a net asset for estimated receipts in excess of estimated costs during liquidation on the Consolidated Statements of Net Assets. Actual costs and revenues may differ from amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements due to the inherent uncertainty in estimating future events. These differences may be material. See Note 4 for further discussion. Actual costs incurred but unpaid as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Net Assets.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates Certain of the Company’s accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of the Company’s financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. Under liquidation accounting, the Company is required to estimate all costs and revenue it expects to incur and earn through the end of liquidation including the estimated amount of cash it expects to collect on the disposal of its assets and the estimated costs to dispose of its assets. All of the estimates and evaluations are susceptible to change and actual results could differ materially from the estimates and evaluations.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition The Company has no revenue sources other than interest income, which is classified in assets for estimated receipts in excess of estimated costs.
Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture	Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture The Company accounts for its investment in unconsolidated joint venture under the equity method of accounting because the Company exercises significant influence over but does not control the entity and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. The investment in the unconsolidated joint venture is recorded at its liquidation value, or net realizable value, which is comprised of an estimate of the expected sale proceeds upon disposition plus the estimated net cash flow from the venture during the liquidation period. The Company evaluates the net realizable value of its unconsolidated joint venture at each reporting period. Any changes in net realizable value will be reflected as a change in the Company’s net assets in liquidation. The liquidation value of the Company’s remaining investment in Worldwide Plaza as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 includes the Company's proportionate share in Worldwide Plaza's net assets which include a property value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates as well as available market information and assumptions regarding capital expenditures.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management has included in restricted cash $90.7 million. This amount has been reserved either for potential capital improvement work at Worldwide Plaza, should the Company elect to contribute, or to be paid as a liquidating distribution to unitholders.
