CSS Building a City Skyline

I’m stuck with this step and the error that the position should be set to absolute, Thoughts?

Step 33

I see some code that can be optimized. Move the position and top properties and values from .foreground-buildings to .background-buildings. Then select both .background-buildings and .foreground-buildings there, effectively applying those styles to both of the elements. You can use a comma (,) to separate selectors like this: selector1, selector2.

:root {
  --building-color1: #aa80ff;
  --building-color2: #66cc99;
  --building-color3: #cc6699;
  --building-color4: #538cc6;
}

* {
  border: 1px solid black;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

body {
  height: 100vh;
  margin: 0;
  overflow: hidden;
}
.background-buildings, foreground-buildings {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  display: flex;
  align-items: flex-end;
  justify-content: space-evenly;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
}

.bb1 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 70%;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: center;
}

.bb1a {
  width: 70%;
  height: 10%;
  background-color: var(--building-color1);
}

.bb1b {
  width: 80%;
  height: 10%;
  background-color: var(--building-color1);
}

.bb1c {
  width: 90%;
  height: 10%;
  background-color: var(--building-color1);
}

.bb1d {
  width: 100%;
  height: 70%;
  background-color: var(--building-color1);
}

.bb2 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 50%;
  background-color: var(--building-color2);
}

.bb3 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 55%;
  background-color: var(--building-color3);
}

.bb4 {
  width: 11%;
  height: 58%;
  background-color: var(--building-color4);
}

.foreground-buildings {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  display: flex;
  align-items: flex-end;
  justify-content: space-evenly;
}
.fb1 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 60%;
}

.fb2 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 40%;
}

.fb3 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 35%;
}

.fb4 {
  width: 8%;
  height: 45%;
}

.fb5 {
  width: 10%;
  height: 33%;
}

.fb6 {
  width: 9%;
  height: 38%;
}

To display your code in here you need to wrap it in triple back ticks. On a line by itself type three back ticks. Then on the first line below the three back ticks paste in your code. Then below your code on a new line type three more back ticks. The back tick on my keyboard is in the upper left just above the Tab key and below the Esc key.

.background-buildings, foreground-buildings {

These are both classes, but only one of them as the dot prefix to make them a class.

Use here
.background-buildings , .foreground-buildings{
position : absolute;
top: 0;}
and then remove both position attributes and top attributes from background-buildings class.
you are doing a very slightly mistake in this code that you had already declared foreground-building as a class therefore use it by .foreground-buildings
