It's close to midnight and the hallways of the former Pfizer building on Flushing Avenue in Williamsburg are silent save for the eerie buzz of the fluorescent lights casting a jaundiced pall over the labyrinthine hallways. During the day, the repurposed pharmaceuticals facility hosts a lively group of mostly food startups, who are using the space as a manufacturing hub as they expand their businesses throughout the five boroughs and beyond. But the night is reserved for the overnight bakers, including a small but productive group from the popular vegan food operation Cinnamon Snail, who've since withdrawn from the food truck game to open a food stall in newly-minted food hall The Pennsy near Penn Station and Madison Square Garden.
