Crecimento (/ˌkrɛʃiˈmɛntoʊ/ kresh-ee-men-toh), colloquially known as Cresho, is a suburb in the Southern Suburbs region of Wentworth. It is the administrative centre and council seat of the Borough of Crecimento, and one of the two main commercial hubs for the Southern Suburbs, the other being Pariwana.
Crecimento was established as the town of "South Wentworth" in the late 18th century, south of the main settlement at what is now the suburb of Luscombe in the Wentworth central business district. The area was renamed "Crecimento" in 1909 after the Crecimento Estate. The name "Crecimento" is a corruption of either the Galician crecemento or Spanish crescimento, both meaning 'growth'.
The Crecimento region developed rapidly in the late 19th century with the construction of many terrace houses. Almost all of these buildings were demolished during World War II due to widespread damage sustained from shelling. The suburb was rebuilt from the ground up in the decades following, and post-war Crecimento shows almost no resemblance to its pre-war counterpart. In 1973, the Borough of Crecimento was established, with Crecimento designated as the council seat. Since then, the suburb has grown into a major hub for inner southern Wentworth, with numerous skyscrapers and high-rise commercial developments constructed since the 1990s.
