The old reliable xy-wing wasn't apparent, so I had to look higher.

A Solution: Skyscraper in 2.

I used an XY followed by a Kite for the same number as your Skyscraper.

I found a pretty useless xy ( 3 more numbers) but it fell out to colouring 2s

An xy-wing (169) followed by an xyz-wing (469) solved it.

If you really want to use xy wings, it takes 3:

-169 xy-wing (or 16-9 xy-wing)
2-69 xy-wing
-489 xy-wing

This one started out quickly, but it took me a little while to see the xyz and then xy that solved it! Nice challenge.
