County Route 104 (CR 104) is a county road in Suffolk County, New York. It runs north from County Route 80 in Quogue to NY 24, County Route 63 and County Route 94 just outside Riverhead. Much of Suffolk County Route 104 runs through the David Allen Sarnoff Pine Barrens Preserve, a major New York State Conservation Area, that was once owned by Radio Corporation of America. There is an access point into the Preserve along County Route 104, south of Riverhead.

From 1930 to 1972, the road was signed as New York State Route 113.

History

In the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, the NY 113 designation was assigned to a previously unnumbered north–south connector between Montauk Highway (then-NY 27) in the village of Quogue and NY 25 in the hamlet of Riverhead.[2] This also included Peconic Avenue in Riverhead, which was multiplexed with NY 24, until it was redirected onto Suffolk County Road 94. The route remained relatively unchanged until March 29, 1972, when ownership and maintenance of NY 113 was transferred from New York State to Suffolk County. NY 113 was then redesignated as County Route 104.[1]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Suffolk County.
