What is a "crescent"?

A crescent is a road or street that follows a curved or semi-circular shape, often found in residential areas. It usually forms part of a larger network of streets, but instead of being straight, it bends or arcs around. Buildings are typically lined along one side of the street, creating a more scenic and quieter route, offering a unique and less direct path through a neighborhood.
