There is a Skyscraper with the possible 7 candidates.

I did a video on Skyscrapers which will help you:

Sorry for the shameless plug but I worked really hard on the video.

Good Luck!

Here is the Skyscraper in cells a-b-c-d. One of cells a or d must be true, so you can eliminate three 7's as shown and the puzzle then solves easily.
