Crescent Methodist Episcopal Church is a historic Methodist Episcopal church located in Crescent, Saratoga County, New York. It was built in 1852 and is a rectangular, three-by-five-bay, brick church in a vernacular Greek Revival style. It is topped by a shallow-pitched, slate-covered, gable roof. It features a two-stage, flat-roofed, open belfry with Tuscan order columns. Attached is a 1-story parish hall wing.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]

Due to its poor condition the church was judged unsafe, and was demolished prior to 2013.
