History
Crescent Bank was founded in 1991 when a small investor group led by Gary N. Solomon Sr. and Fred B. Morgan III purchased the assets of Columbia Homestead on Harrison Avenue in New Orleans, Louisiana. With only three employees, the bank opened as City Bank & Trust. The name was later changed to Crescent Bank & Trust, and then to Crescent Bank. The name was chosen to pay homage to a famous nickname of New Orleans, the “Crescent City”. Throughout its history Crescent Bank has provided lending and banking services nationwide, with a consistent focus on bringing investment and growth to the greater New Orleans area it calls home.
