In the final chapter of his four-part State of the State Address on Thursday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo talked about building a “new New York” with a litany of projects statewide but little detail on how they’ll be funded.

Cuomo invoked Franklin Roosevelt, who served as New York’s governor before becoming president. He said FDR’s New Deal originated from the bridges, tunnels and skyscrapers built in the state. But he said the country has allowed other nations to surpass it in infrastructure development.
