Celtic Shaquille O’Neal celebrated his team’s win over the Wizards on Wednesday by hosting the Ames Hotel’s first anniversary party, which included an appearance by funk great Maceo Parker. Shaq towered over hotel employees (including marketing director Paul Sauceda, GM Cate Farmer, and executive assistant Julie Guerra), and lounged with his rumored fiancee, Nicole “Hoopz’’ Alexander. Meanwhile, other names in the restaurant and nightlife industry — including Ames owner Seth Greenberg, restaurateur Darryl Settles, Prezza owner Anthony Caturano, and Ace Gershfield of 6one7 Productions (who was just named one of the 25 Most Stylish Bostonians in the Globe), sipped and snacked. The Ames building was empty for the better part of a decade before it opened as a boutique hotel last fall.
