I assume one of the original reasons for the Podium was in fact to have good spacing between the hotel and a 372 foot wall of glass. Campeau did the same for the Skyline/Crown Plaza/Delta as did Teron with the garden of the Provinces/Delta/Hilton(?) one block west and Minto 2 blocks south.
That said, we have many other hotels with rooms facing office towers at close proximity, such as the Sheraton's view of the mini-Varette to the south or lord Elgin's view of 66 Slater or Capitol Hill's view of Lorne 2.0's west wall. The absolute worst view will be the Alt's Slater street hotel where guests will have a wonderful view of the Bell Switching building's blank wall.
