A new ferry route will link Staten Island to the West Side of Manhattan. New Yorkers who don’t get paid vacation will soon have two weeks.

And wealth in the city will be more evenly distributed.

Those are some of the promises Mayor Bill de Blasio made in an hourlong State of the City speech on Thursday, his sixth since taking office and one that clearly articulated his view of how he has changed New York City as he prepares to embark on a national tour to trumpet his accomplishments and proposals.

“Here’s the truth, brothers and sisters, there’s plenty of money in the world. Plenty of money in this city,” the mayor said, flanked by screens with graphs of productivity outpacing compensation. “It’s just in the wrong hands!”

In the speech, delivered at Symphony Space on the Upper West Side, the mayor presented his leadership of New York as one that has made streets safer and brought new protections for tenants and workers. He cast himself as an aspiring Robin Hood — aiming to take from the rich and give to the poor — even as he has thus far been unsuccessful in his many attempts to raise taxes on high earners.
