Unlike many outlying portions of the city, the Crescent never entered decline, and as the New City gave way to the [[Julian Palace]] and other structures, the Crescent continued to grow and develop as the urban core of Urceopolis. Many important and historic structures were built in the Crescent during the Renaissance period, and it is the home to hundreds of {{wp|Baroque}} churches. The Crescent was the site of significant industrialization during the early 19th century, but gave way to middle class housing and businesses later in that century and today remains the urban core of the city based around a large contingent of middle and upper middle class families and businesses. The construction of the ''Via Corona'' in the Crescent in the 1800s made much of the Crescent an extremely walkable and enjoyable area for residents and tourists alike, and the Crescent has consistently been ranked among the best neighborhoods in Urcea by several journalistic and lifestyle outlets. Much of the Crescent is heavily urbanized, with the western parts of the borough covered in skyscrapers. Though its business district pales in comparison to Kingswood's, significant commercial and corporate activity takes place within west Crescent.
