Printable skyscrapers puzzles

Three free skyscrapers (towers, skyline) puzzles to print: a 4x4 warm-up, a 5x5 standard board and a 6x6 challenge. Each has exactly one answer, can be solved by logic alone with no guessing, and the answers are on the last page. No sign-up and no ads.

How to read the puzzle

Put a height from 1 to N in every cell so each row and column uses every height once. Each number outside the grid says how many buildings you can see looking along that line from that edge: a taller building hides every shorter one behind it. A blank clue gives no information. Shaded cells are already filled in. Stuck? The solving guide explains the six deductions that finish every board here.
