Once you party at The Estate (1 Boylston Place, Boston, 617.351.7000), formerly known as Mansion Boston, it's tough to imagine yourself anywhere else. A hotspot ever since its February opening, the former home of the Big Easy has transcended its humble frat-party roots. After all, how many other lounges have a butler on call to facilitate VIP service for guests? Boston's own Mash-Up Mafia mans the DJ booth, and the venue has already played host to a number of A-list events, including Mass Equality's Third Anniversary of Gay Marriage Party and Boston Fashion Weekend's Kick-Off. The club's plans for the upcoming months include model searches, fashion shows that support up-and-coming local designers, and fundraisers. [Photo: Joel Veak]
