The capital in Indiana canvas prints
One of the largest state capitals in the United States, Indianapolis is located in the center of Indiana. This city was founded in 1821, designed by Alexander Ralston who was an apprentice to Pierre L'Enfant during the planning of Washington, DC. Try to see if you can find identical features when looking at Indiana canvas prints featuring the capital city. Nowadays though, the city has a diversified economy which includes biomedical research, insurance, real estate management and development. Therefore it is no wonder that Indiana canvas prints has plenty of magnificent buildings in its images. Pieces such as "Indianapolis Indiana Skyline Black" feature landmarks like the Salesforce Tower. At 247 meters, this tower is the 230th tallest building worldwide and 44th in the US. Another tower to glimpse in Indiana canvas prints the OneAmerica Tower, which was opened to much fanfare in 1982. This tower prides itself in its "The Skyline Club", which is a private restaurant that is on the 36th floor.
More information
Indianapolis is known as the Circle City because there is a cobblestone street circle that hosts a large war memorial, which is decked out in lights every Christmas season. Indiana canvas prints can be the inspiration for you to make that trip one day. You have to keep in mind though that Indianapolis' weather is always unpredictable, much like Australia's Melbourne. One day it can be a comfortable 21 degrees and sunny, and the next it could be close to freezing and raining! Connoisseurs will be delighted at Circle City because it is full of craft beers, meads and wines, where most of the restaurants support local brewers heavily. Oddly enough though, you cannot buy alcohol on Sundays. So enjoy your beer at home on a Sunday while looking at your collection of Indiana canvas prints with Indianapolis as the main subject.
