Using the recentered versions of the USC image and Baist map from the Amelia Street School post, it looks like the building with the turret was the Industrial School on Hewitt Street. The Amelia Street School is on the top-left of the image below, with the Industrial School on the top-right. In the foreground is the Pioneer Truck Co where the Ducommun Street Yard would be a few years later.


Detail of picture in USC Digital Library

And here's the 1921 Baist map. The Industrial School is just above the "V" in "ALANIS VINEYARD TR". So far I can't find the Industrial School in the CDs, but I'll keep looking.
