Post MBA Hedge Fund Life in NYC?

I am finishing up my MBA at H/S/W this spring and heading back to New York City for a activist HF gig. It has been a few years since I lived in the city and was wondering what people in this part of life do for fun outside of work and where?

As a banking/PE junior my weekends consisted almost exclusively of going out / partying really hard but imagine it will be quite different post MBA. Would be great to hear people's thoughts!

Any fun members clubs that are realistic for me to join?
