The table below reports construction contract and other service revenues by service type (in thousands):

We recognized revenue of $349,000, $586,000 and $483,000 in 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

Accounts receivable related to our construction contract services is included in accounts receivable, net on our consolidated balance sheets. The beginning and ending balances of accounts receivable related to our construction contracts were as follows (in thousands):



	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2018		2017
Beginning balance	$	4,577	$	4,131
Ending balance	$	6,701	$	4,577

Contract assets, which we refer to herein as construction costs in excess of billings, are included in prepaid expenses and other assets, net reported on our consolidated balance sheets. The beginning and ending balances of our contract assets were as follows (in thousands):



	For the Years Ended December 31,
	2018		2017
Beginning balance	$	4,884	$	10,350

Contract liabilities are included in other liabilities reported on our consolidated balance sheets. Changes in contract liabilities were as follows (in thousands):

Portion of beginning balance recognized in revenue during the year	$	27,296	$	32,650

The change in the contract liabilities balance reported above for 2018 was due primarily to our satisfaction of performance obligations during the period on a contract on which we previously received advance payments from a customer.

Revenue allocated to the remaining performance obligations under existing contracts as of December 31, 2018 that will be recognized as revenue in future periods was $58.1 million, all of which we expect to recognize in 2019.

We have no deferred incremental costs incurred to obtain or fulfill our construction contracts or other service revenues, and had no impairment losses on construction contracts receivable or unbilled construction revenue in 2018, 2017 and 2016.
