When you enter the apartment, an extra-long couch decked out with faux-fur pillows immediately catches your eye. The orange chairs on the left-hand side were bought vintage and repurposed, while the unique end tables were made by New York-based designers Egg Collective.

And right behind that, Goldberg's whiskey collection is on display. "I wanted to have a great whiskey bar," he said. "There's not a lot of art in this apartment yet, but having a lot of whiskey bottles on the bar catches your eye."

The whole apartment has a midcentury vibe. One long wall hides lighting systems and storage behind paneled doors.

The spaciousness of the apartment is a big perk, as Goldberg likes to host friends who also work in tech and media. "I'm not a fan of huge parties with dozens of people, but I love throwing dinner parties for a small but talkative group of people," he said.

"People in media and tech are really busy," he said. "It's hard to get a dozen or sixteen people together in one room to talk off the record about what's going on [in the industry], and I'm able to do that here. If I had to point to one reason why I wanted to have the space, that would be it."

Working in media can be a 24/7 gig — especially when you're running a steadily growing site like Bustle — so Goldberg savors his weekend downtime. "The interesting thing with media is that it can be difficult to define when you're working," he said. "For example, when I'm not hosting a dinner event, I'm often attending one ...

"It’s rare that I’m home before 10 or 11 p.m. on a weeknight," he said. "On most weekends, nothing makes me happier than just to crawl up in a blanket, relax, and watch TV or a game."

And in the closet, we took a peek at his shoe collection. "I walked everywhere in San Francisco, and I walk everywhere here. If that means it takes me 45 minutes to get to a meeting, that's fine," Goldberg said. "One of the cool things about living in the Chelsea area is that there are very few parts of Manhattan that are more than a mile away."
