Below: Twitter highlights from the mayor’s speech:

“The strike is a lost cause” @MikeBloomberg on bus driver strike

No mention of buying-out homeowners in flood zones, like @NYGovCuomo has suggested. #SOTC2013

— Andrew J. Hawkins (@andyjayhawk) 14 Feb 13

MT @samrob12: Pot possession in NYC? From now on: No overnight jail, just desk appearance ticket from precinct, Bloomberg to say.

— NYT Metro Desk (@NYTMetro) 14 Feb 13

Mayor: We’ll open all of our beaches on Memorial Day weekend this year, just as we always do! #Sandy #SOTC2013

Bloomberg on Sandy rebuilding: “We’re a coastal city, so we cannot – and will not – abandon the waterfront.” #sotc2012

— Anna Sale (@annasale) 14 Feb 13

Bloomberg throws a hard elbow at Robert Moses, saying — correctly — that Moses cut off the city from its waterfront.

“The special interests and campaign donors have never had less power than they’ve had over the past 11 years” – @MikeBloomberg

— Michael Paulson (@MichaelPaulson) 14 Feb 13

Our goal is not to spend the year cutting ribbons. Our goal is to keep NYC on the right course for decades http://t.co/iIJ1sfih #SOTC2013
