In 2002, the United States issued a set of 50 stamps each with a different design resembling an old post card. Each of the fifty states were represented in the set. The stamp for the state of Indiana showed a covered bridge from Parke County and the Indianapolis skyline featuring the dome of the state capitol.
The prominent buildings comprising the skyline are the Hilton Downtown Hotel, the AmericaOne Tower and 101 W. Ohio Street. And although the covered bridge is not identified and probably meant to be generic, it looks a lot like the Mansfield bridge, a double arch span originally built in 1867.
