Splash Closes, Will Reopen as Bliss

(eater.com) Leather District club Splash Ultra Lounge & Burger Bar is now closed and is in the process of being reborn as something called Bliss. Boston Restaurant Talk spotted a Facebook post by Splash owner Frank DePasquale, who writes "Splash lounge is simply a memory Bliss event facility will soon open." Interested patrons are encouraged to book private parties, and so it would seem that Bliss will not be open to the general public, but that has yet to be confirmed. Splash posted a similar update on its page, writing "COMING SOON, Boston`s newest event venue, BLISS !!!" Previously, Splash was temporarily closed by order of the city following citations for overcrowding and underage drinking, and according to an employee from a different DePasquale Ventures venue, Splash has been closed for some time now.
