JCAL Development and the Altmark Group have topped off construction at 329 East 132nd Street, a new high-end rental tower in the South Bronx’s Mott Haven section. According to an article from the New York Observer, the building will be among the largest and one of the first ground-up market-rate developments in the area. The $25 million project will be composed of 91 apartments, a fitness center, a roof terrace, bike storage, a lounge, and on-site parking for 37 vehicles.
The building rises on the southernmost public street in the borough, overlooking a large parking lot/ railyard at the Harlem River and the Willis Avenue Bridge. Aufgang Architects is handling the design and a rendering published by the developer shows the building will feature large multi-pane windows, several communal and private terraces, and an angled prow caused by the odd shape of the lot. Completion is set for January 2018.

Roughly a dozen residential buildings are planned in the area straddled by Bruckner Boulevard; the area is being marketed as the “Piano District”. Next door to the building is a 419-unit affordable rental building known as 'Bruckner on the Bridge.' One block west is Chetrit/ Somerset Partners’ 2401 Third Avenue and 101 Lincoln Avenue that will bring up to 1,300 units to the area. In December, Crain's New York reported that the 13-acre railyards facing the building may be redeveloped with a massive "Hudson Yards-style" waterfront development. In November, the Empire State Development put out a request for expression of interest, inviting developers to present offers for leasing or purchasing the land, decking over the yards, then building a sizable residential or mixed-use project on top
