Whiskey Park in Boston Has Closed

It appears that a swank and trendy lounge in the heart of Boston has closed its doors.

According to a poster on Chowhound, Whiskey Park within the Park Plaza Hotel on Arlington Street is no longer in business, as a sign on the door apparently says that a new company acquired some of the Starwood properties (including the Park Plaza), and because of this, Whiskey Park has been shuttered. Phone calls placed to the lounge did not go through, and a check on the Park Plaza Hotel website indicates that Whiskey Park is no longer listed within the dining section of the site.

Whiskey Park first opened in Boston about six years ago, being one of a number of outlets of the upscale lounge run by Rande Gerber, who is the husband of model Cindy Crawford, along with his brother Scott (the two of them head up the Gerber Group, which is the group behind the lounges). In addition to Whiskey Park, the Gerber Group also runs Midnight Rose, The Penthouse, Stone Rose, and Whiskey Blue.

The address for this now-closed lounge in Boston was: Whiskey Park, 64 Arlington Street, Boston, MA, 02116.
