Building wings crossword clue
105 Down · WSJ Crossword, October 16, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Building wings” is ELLS. It appears as 105 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 16, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “On the Wrong Track” by Brad Wiegmann, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 18, column 9 of the 21×21 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with E and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
