Hope you've all had a great weekend!
Infrastructurist the stadium is called Bratcher Field named after the mayor who helped make it possible Edward Bratcher. When it was constructed in 1910 Crescent City couldn't afford to build it alone so they asked the school corporation to give a million dollars to help fund the stadium and in turn the school could use it to host school games. The stadium had once been home to the National League team the Blue Jay's before they moved to Toronto. Bratcher Field also had been famously known for having "Rock Fest" a 1974 concert which hosted major acts like Aerosmith and CCR. Within the past 15 years preservation groups have been trying to restore the national historic landmark which has fallen into disrepair as it is one of 4 stadiums still standing along with famous Bosse Field and Wrigley Field all built in the early 1900's. Today the stadium is home to the AA pro team the Crescent Wrenches named for the booming industry the city saw during the WW2 effort.
Built in 1948 as the home base for the "Crescent Dreamers" baseball team, named "Cooper Field" after the founder of the Dreamers "David Cooper" (1884-1947) Due to the Dreamers hitting a slump & locals losing interest, the park's owners fell into bankruptcy & the park was appropriated by the city Crescent in 2003. With the city planning on developing the site, MLB made a deal to keep the Crescent Dreamers in the game by privately funding the park. In 2016 the Dreamers made it to the World Series and the park has since been booming in local attendance to games. Due to the high profit in the last year, the Crescent City Council is currently considering improving the site in hopes of keeping public interest in the park.
The baseball team is named the Crescent Crimsons, a mildly successful team who in recent years have come under controversy over allegations of illegal funding but continue to have an incredibly loyal following from the citizens of Crescent and the rural towns surrounding the area including the African American citizens as the team has a majority of African American players and the stadium being named "King Park" after Martin Luther King
The crescent crusaders Founded in 1969 with the Kansas City Royals and the Milwaukee Brewers. The team was known for being one of the first with an indoor stadium with the crescent dome. However this stadium aged quickly and with a combination of lack of success and poor attendance the team nearly relocated to Miami in 1989. However in the late 80s the team finally won division titles and made it to the playoffs. The team finally won a World Series in 1994 😏 With the success brought enough money to build Pepsi Park in 1995. Pepsi sponsored the stadium because nearby Atlanta is the hq of Coca-Cola
In 1994, the MLB decided to expand the league by adding two more teams. The city of Crescent decided to bid for one of the expansion teams due to the general lack of major league baseball in the greater Southeastern US. The city was able to pledge 210 million dollars, award construction contracts, and begin construction on a 38,000 seat stadium to show the MLB that the city was committed to gain a new team. Due to lackluster support for Crescent's NFL team and the support for the dominant Atlanta Braves just four hours up the road the MLB didn't feel the city could support a franchise, and the franchises were later awarded to Phoenix and Tampa Bay. Crescent, having just finished the stadium with no tenants the city council sold the naming rights to the Colossal Corporation in 1999 and the stadium hosted events such as concerts and local school athletic tournaments. The stadium had no permanent tenants until 2009, when the minor league team Richmond Braves relocated to Crescent. The team, playing in the International League at the AAA level was re-branded as the Crescent Stripers and became affiliated with the nearby Atlanta Braves. The team performs well, winning a divisional championship in 2016, but usually only fills a quarter of the stadium which continues to be a symbol of the failures and unrealistic ambitions of the Crescent city government.
I live in Georgia myself, and I love this city you built so far. I recommend building newer looking suburbs (80s-00s) because that’s the way most georgia cities are, especially savannah and Atlanta. Most of Atlanta’s sprawl happened in the 70s and after. In savannah it was a couple decades later. I want this to be more like an actual Georgia city.
You’d probably want such a wide river to remain navigable to shipping. Thus wouldn’t it make sense to have an elevated bridge so that ships could pass underneath it rather than the highway interchange directly over the river? Awesome work so far BTW. Been a big fan since the Kendrick days. Cheers!
Something to consider when building industries is wheater or not they'll have outside storage. For example; I work with transporting concrete pre-fabs, they are often stored in droves on the lot and loaded onto trucks with big traverses(both going on rail and a truck variant) or big forklifts.
As a citizen of Crescent, I would love for our great city to embrace the future, which is tech. I’ve been living here for 5 years now, before that, I lived in Downtown Kendrick, I love this city and it’s people and I can slowly see it making big moves towards progress. Tech isn’t really big here in the SE United States so it’d be good for the area and the universities in the area. Atlanta has a growing entertainment industry almost making it the Hollywood of the south and with that being said, I don’t think it would be that much of a stretch for us to strive to be somewhat of a Silicon Valley of the south. I’m more than okay with having a slight tax raise to help out the tech start up companies. Who knows, Crescent could soon be home to the next Apple, Google or other tech giant headquarters. I know the money that I’m willing to help put into this will be poured right back into the community. Thanks mayor, you’re doing an awesome job and I know you’re decision will benefit Crescent in the long run. -Lawrence Coleman
This series is really helping me on Cities: Skylines. I've always wanted to build a really good looking city but I never really was that good. This is really helping and inspiring.
I feel this misses out an important feature of large american centers: formerly separate, not necessarily suburban communities which have been absorbed in the urban sprawl, creating distinc patterns of land use and street layout.
for the stadium: The stadium started construction in 1941, and finished in 1971, in the memory of Alex Adamson, Naming the stadium the Crescent's Adamson Stadium. He was born August 22nd, 1899, And growing up, loved football. Played it every day, But September 14th, 1933, He broke is ankle, disappointed the city, because he was the star of the Crescent Bobcats. 8 Years later, He became Mayor of the city, after beating the new york football club. But the city's team was underfunded, but he made it better. Sadly on Febuary 28th, 1966, He was murdered by a unnamed man. In 1971 when they were voting what to name the stadium, They named it after him for being a great leader. The stadium is fully working, but the Bobcats are currently having a funding problem, so the stadium is being only used for the kids teams.
I think it would be awesome if, for your next American series, you do a city that is actually thriving, rather than in decline. I think maybe taking examples from cities like Charlotte, NC, San Diego, CA, or even Orlando, FL, would lead to a city with a lot of development going on, possibly with some interesting stories to tell.
Can you get a mod for population and make it around 1,000,000 people or lower. And make every skyscraper have a tot tale person count of around 10,000 just for realistic population in the city ???
There is a mod just for that... However; it's really hard to estimate how many people live in a appartment building, because even the same types of complexes can have different sized appartments making enough living space for less or more people in total.
A mod just so that the city population bar says a higher population pulse I don’t think this City would even realistically in the end of this series be more than 2 Or 300,000 people but it s always nice to look at a more accurate population for me, but yea compared to every major city that I look at On google earth the houses go on for hundreds of miles which I’ve never seen a cities skyliner do before because even the map is to small to make a city that big at least I think but I really can’t tell for sure because I don’t know how big the maps are
Glad to see you're feeling better. And man, everything looks awesome! You're really good at capturing that Southern sprawl. I have one question, though- how did you get the water to look that good in the cinematics?
Great work. I look to you and Strict for realistic city building ideas. 2 questions. The water how? And where can I find the baseball stadium? Also, do you plan on doing industry. Cities in the southlocate heavy industry in industrial parks mostly near interstates and airports.
Hi! Congratulations for your work. Can i make a question? How mod you use to " dont dissappear buildings"?? I try with " no problem", " no abandonment", and much others combinations. My building dissapear ever. Please help me.
I just can't stop lauthing each time i think about how the game reacts to flying props. It must be like OH MY GOD WTF IS HE DOING WHO JUST STOPPED GRAVITY SEND ME BACK TO EARTH PLS HELP!!!
You're next series should be a city that isn't depressed, or down in the dumps, or financially ruined. I hope you do a series where the city has cash and wealth and prospers. Personally, every episode seems to have somebody or some group in debt.
Hello, i have a question, i have problem with props/trees, when i zoom out, they dissaperar, i used prop visibility mod, but it didn´t help me, i dont know what to do... I would like to get some advise please... BTW nice video, i really love your creations :)
It's getting a bit monotonous watching parking lots builds between few unique buildings, need more of placing unique styles and buildings, like power city/dam, from where power is taken, entertainment buildings, nature reserves, tourist islands, forestry, oil refining (which will really go well with old city)
A serious reply: doesn't Trump like to focus his luxury towers on really major cities? I don't think Crescent would qualify, being only a second city of Georgia.

Jack Clark and mabye brand new ones built in the last 10-0 years as you go farther out if the city

I’m excited for the votes and buses!
trains too :D

I hope this series isn’t over, I miss Cresent :(

Call them the crescent city rockers
Finally dude! So glad to finnaly see the next episode. :D
I will probably not get an answer, but what is the name of the track in the very beginning? Like from around 0:00 to 0:57?
You should do a city recreation series!
I'm impressed! Your city of Crescent has the feel of a decrepitating suburban town.
I think it would be awesome if, for your next American series, you do a city that is actually thriving, rather than in decline.

De Wolfie you do have a good piont
That would ruin your PC, not to mention the traffic.
Yea
A mod just so that the city population bar says a higher population pulse I don’t think this City would even realistically in the end of this series be more than 2 Or 300,000 people but it s always nice to look at a more accurate population for me, but yea compared to every major city that I look at
On google earth the houses go on for hundreds of miles which I’ve never seen a cities skyliner do before because even the map is to small to make a city that big at least I think but I really can’t tell for sure because I don’t know how big the maps are
The start up proposal is great!
Glad to see you're feeling better. And man, everything looks awesome! You're really good at capturing that Southern sprawl. I have one question, though- how did you get the water to look that good in the cinematics?
U should do a national park type of area and call it crescent national park😉
Ah, the tiny triangle of missed pavement on the fast-food parking lot bugged me a lot. :D
Besides your awesome buildings skills, you have a really good sense for the music!
Waiting patiently still for the next episode, but my hope has fallen to 75%
I'd get rid of the n and out burger. We dont have them down here at all
YAAAAAAAAAAAASSSS
It’s finally back
I have s name for the bus system: CART for Crescent Area Regional Transit
Great video again, well worth the wait.
I bet it took a lot of work just to build this realistic city.
What took you so long. You are the only one I look forward to!
Please throw off the fashion with which you built Japan project in Japan
You need midcentury houses for those types of areas that way it's realistic. The houses you keep using are old old houses and not 50s and 60s ranches
I wish there were enough assets, so you could make a post-apocalyptic city. With many destroyed buildings and plants everywhere
I love this series!
Cool!!
I wish you could play in one of my maps, you do so much of a good job I gotta love it! Keep it up!
I love the narrative
Where you at man?
Great work. I look to you and Strict for realistic city building ideas. 2 questions. The water how? And where can I find the baseball stadium? Also, do you plan on doing industry. Cities in the southlocate heavy industry in industrial parks mostly near interstates and airports.
Come back to this channel please,
Would love you to do a Australian city
Great Video. What pc are you working with? Thanks for an answer greetings
I've been waiting like ppl been waiting on the Dr. Dre Detox album. 😁

Hi! Congratulations for your work. Can i make a question? How mod you use to " dont dissappear buildings"?? I try with " no problem", " no abandonment", and much others combinations. My building dissapear ever. Please help me.
This city is very beautiful! Lol
I just can't stop lauthing each time i think about how the game reacts to flying props. It must be like OH MY GOD WTF IS HE DOING WHO JUST STOPPED GRAVITY SEND ME BACK TO EARTH PLS HELP!!!
Infrastructurist you are the best. Sorry for my english, sorry my articles))) I am russian)))
How do the growable buildings not de-spawn when you place them with find it?
What mod do you use to keep the demand bars full all the time
You're next series should be a city that isn't depressed, or down in the dumps, or financially ruined. I hope you do a series where the city has cash and wealth and prospers. Personally, every episode seems to have somebody or some group in debt.
Varghese Antony welp, looks like a Dubai series should be in the works. Lol because every other city on this planet seems to be in debt.
Dennel Wright including Dubai, I don’t think you understood what I was saying.
What map is this
Can you make financial center in Crescent?
how do you get the roads to look grayish and worn?
I get a 'null reference exception' error with your mod folder. Do you know which causes the error?
How do you do to move your buildings like this? I use Move It mod but buildings always desapeared when I replace them :(
Hello, i have a question, i have problem with props/trees, when i zoom out, they dissaperar, i used prop visibility mod, but it didn´t help me, i dont know what to do... I would like to get some advise please... BTW nice video, i really love your creations :)
Good job
Yes!! Finally :D
How do you manage to build smooth Islands?
do the city have a hospital already? I can't remember. How about public transportation?
Amazing
What map is this @infrastructurist if you don’t mind me asking?
Do you have a steam group for The American Dream?
What are your PC specs?
AjjaOne way too good
Com from nasa
Build a 500 feet tall wells Fargo bank
Can you show a map of the city for us to get a sense of direction and locations of all the districts?
Like you did for Kendrick!
Would you be willing to share your asset/mod list from Steam? Your collection is amazing.
1nnu3ndo he already did. Look in the description box.
Dennel Wright d'oh! Thanks
hey dude, amazing vid, but what map is this. i want to make my own similar city.
Your city it's literally Detroit !
Why is there an In N Out in Georgia? Not to be rude or anything
It's getting a bit monotonous watching parking lots builds between few unique buildings, need more of placing unique styles and buildings, like power city/dam, from where power is taken, entertainment buildings, nature reserves, tourist islands, forestry, oil refining (which will really go well with old city)
Infraestructurist i would like tajar you get the ParkLife DLC and use 1 or 2 episodes of the series making parks with the dlc
Hello
Stun good mornin
What recorder/video editor do you use?

Gee, I hope it's as shitty, ineffective and underpatronized as it sounds!
South America
😀
Hi, maybe you can use my music in your videos?

Ugh, too realistic. I can feel the crushing economic depression through youtube...
Yup no school no fire dept no police
gorLOMi
Do you know what Cresent really needs? A Trump Tower
Quantum 0 its gonna be awesome
Infractructurist you can make video like when trump tower under construction and in next video its gonna be finished ( sorry for grammar)
....why?
Because... errr... erm... well... it’s... errr...
A serious reply: doesn't Trump like to focus his luxury towers on really major cities? I don't think Crescent would qualify, being only a second city of Georgia.
