Notes on this puzzle
11 clues around the edge, out of a possible 20, frame this 5×5 grid. 1 height is already standing inside the grid.
There is 1 clue of 1 around the frame; the first cell beside each of them must hold a 5. On 1 line the two opposite clues add up to 6, which fixes exactly where the tallest building stands. The top edge carries the most clues (4). 9 edge positions are blank, so parts of the grid are solved from the inside out.
Where to beginTry row 1, column 5 first: its row and column clues decide it without any other help. Remember that a clue of k keeps the tallest building at least k−1 cells away from that edge.
