The grid is a bird’s-eye view of a city’s downtown core. Place a number from 1 to 5 (representing a building’s height) in each cell so that no two buildings in any row or column have the same height. The numbers outside the grid tell you the number of buildings visible from that direction. Higher buildings block the view of lower ones behind them. Can you determine the heights of all 25 buildings?
