Instructions to leave a high-rise building derelict (4-3-3)
I believe the answer is:
down-and-out
'derelict' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'instructions to leave a high-rise' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'building' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for down-and-out that I've seen before include "Impoverished (and unconscious?)" , "Impoverished - destitute person" .)
