Tower to Dominate Center of Church Oakland's fire code insists on a free-standing fire escape stairway for a new $400,000 activity center planned by St.

So church officials, with architects Norris Gaddis and Winfield Hyde, decided to make the thing the most conspicuous fea-25 ture of their structure next to the church at 114 Montecito Ave. They moved its location up to the front of the lot, and designed a brick and stone tower to encase it which will rise to about 70 feet, 15 feet higher than the new five-story building itself. ON THE CHURCH The tower, to cost about $50, 000 even outstretches the tower on the church by a few feet. Details of the new building were outlined before the city's Board of Zoning Adjustments yesterday.

The Rev. Darby Betts, church rector, said the building will primarily be used by residents of the $10 million St. Paul's Towers retirement home under construction across the street. An underground tunnel will connect the two buildings. Proposed are a library, lecture hall, craft shop, offices and enough classrooms to accommodate up to four grades of a private school, Dr.

Betts said. The church seeks a variance in a city regulation that at least parking spaces be provided for the new building. EXTRA PARKING Rev. Betts noted that the 279- unit apartment will have 228 parking spaces. Plenty of extra parking will be available, he said, because fewer than half of the 234 residents signed up have reserved parking space.

The board will rule on the matter Nov. 24. In other business, the board approved: union hall and office building proposed by Teamster's Local 70 for a four-acre site at 70 Hegenberger Rd. in an area zoned for light industry. A request by St.
