Bloomberg to Deliver State of the City
The mayor will deliver his penultimate State of the City address Thursday from the Bronx.

On Thursday afternoon, Mayor Michael Bloomberg will deliver the 11th State of the City address of his career, this time from Morris Educational Campus in the Bronx.
Among the topics up for discussion is the revival of the Kingsbridge Armory in the Bronx, which was slated for development in 2010 but ground to a halt following a dispute over worker wages.
And according to the New York Times, Bloomberg's decision to deliver his speech from the campus of a public school - which is actually comprised of four small schools - may be a sign that he plans to touch on education, specifically the "small school-movement" he has long touted.
