Jeff Bezos' retailer behemoth Amazon Inc. had no love for New York on Valentine's Day, announcing it was canceling plans for a corporate campus in Long Island City.

Even the city planners keep changing their minds: South Boston Waterfront, or Innovation District, or Seaport District, or just plain Seaport.
