Quentin has seen the Sutpen house "seventy-five years after it was finished" (29) - which would be 1910, when Quentin is in Massachusetts. Presumably the reference is to the trip Quentin takes with Rosa in September 1909, though that is not the first time Quentin has seen the house. [Source: Narrator]
