This was fun. I doubt that my route was the most direct.

I see a skyscraper then a 4-cell xy-chain.

That was after many tries as there are LOTS of possibles here. Nice puzzle!

Yes, a very nice puzzle!

I had an XY-wing, XYZ-wing, skyscraper on <3>, then a 4-cell chain, aka an extended XY-wing.

The skyscraper is essential, I do not know that the preceding wings are.
