Quiet park with some large on-site art installations. One was unfortunately in need of repair (see photo) and others are looking a bit worn. You can see what look like abandoned missile silos and watch towers. Being on the hilltop, the panoramic view is quite beautiful. There aren't alot of trails here, and we didn't visit the artists on site so we ended up hanging out here for only 40 mins before moving on. Still it's a nice spot for a quiet stroll with some nice inclines.

Peaceful place and very clean space. Scenic view, and very quiet place to see mountains and city around. This place also has many deers around so tick alert. Not only it has a mini trek but also a plant bet for Livingston association

In an area of well manicured upper-middle class sprawl, this art park is a bright spot located right in the heart of the Livingston community. Perched on the top of the hill with lovely views in all directions, old worn sculpture pieces adorn a grounds full of art studios and other old abandoned viewing towers. Highlights for me? All of the great locations for future photo shoots. So many flavorful backdrops and views. Let’s not forget heightening our appreciation of art and sculpture in general! Doubtful the state puts much money into this little treasure, but no matter as it’s a wonderful addition in a land of strip malls and endless suburbia. Lots of fun. Spent about a solid hour roaming the grounds and will happily return with my niece and nephew soon.

Chill spot ontop a hill/mountain former airforce reconnaissance base during the cold war. Now it is an art locale w a community garden, picnic grass is available, remnants of the base are there.
