    I think you mean Beaubien and Horton. Palmer School was at 545 Horton [[a block north of E. Grand Blvd.) between Beaubien and St. Antoine. I believe it was torn down several years ago.

    It appears that it was torn down in 1978. Here is a link to a very brief Twitter message about the school, and the photo from that posting:

    White school was in a poor blue-collar neighborhood, but all the girls were dressed nice and neat.
