History

The station facilities were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004.
The station underwent rebuilding work to extend the platforms approximately 135 m (443 ft) toward Ayase Station to allow ten-car through trains to operate to and from the main Chiyoda Line. New station entrances were also added. 10 car service began on March 16, 2019.
Passenger statistics
In fiscal 2011, the station was used by an average of 25,225 passengers daily.
