Skiles Test Nature Park in October 2014
Skiles Test Nature Park, sometimes called Skiles Test Nature Area is a park on the east side of Indianapolis, Indiana, United States.[1] The land had been owned by Skiles Test and was the site of the supposedly haunted house known as the House of Blue Lights.
Skiles Test, a local business man, lived on the property from 1913 to 1964. The property once had a miniature railway and a pool with bathhouses, elevators, and highdives.[2]
In 2010 Big Car organized series of site specific art installations in the park including works by Cindy Hinant, Nathan Monk, and Lukas Schooler.[3]
