Route Description
Route 104 begins as Waterman Avenue at an intersection with US 44 in North Providence. It proceeds northwest into the town of Smithfield. The road name chanes to Farnum Pike as the route passes through the Georgiaville section of the town. The route soon crosses under I-295 without an interchange. Route 104 continues its northwest path through Smithfield center and eventually enters the town of North Smithfield. In North Smithfield, it turns north and intersects Route 7. Beyond the Route 7 junction, Route 104 shifts to Greenville Road, which bends eastward at Primrose Pond. Route 104 then reaches the city of Woonsocket, going along Providence Street and Main Street. State maintenance of the road ends at the intersection with Route 146A at the city line but signage for Route 104 continues into downtown Woonsocket, ending at Worrall Street.
The Rhode Island Department of Transportation Pavement Log shows Route 104 ending at the corner of Providence Street and South Main Street in Woonsocket. Signage, however, clearly shows Route 104 ending at Worrall Street. Some of this signage was put up by the City, some was put up by the State. Some old signage shows Route 104 continuing along Clinton Street (northbound) and Worrall Street and Social Street (southbound) to end at Route 126, but most of the southbound signs now say TO 104.

“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
“An intentional object is given by a word or a phrase which gives a description under which.”
