FINANCIAL DISTRICT — Acclaimed chef Wylie Dufresne is bringing his inventive cuisine to Williams Street.

The chef, whose longtime eatery WD-50 shuttered last year because its Lower East Side building was being demolished, is slated to open a new restaurant inside extended-stay hotel AKA Wall Street at 83 Williams St., in 2016, The New York Times reported.

Dufresne has become known for his quirky, upscale fare, which earned WD-50 its first Michelin star in 2006.

Details about the type of cuisine, or the name of the eatery, have not yet been revealed.
