History

The station opened on 8 May 1904 on what is now the Keikyū Main Line, initially as 'Aomono-Yokochō Station' written with the older town-form character. With the start of through service to Toei Line 1 on 21 June 1968 it became a Limited Express stop. Elevated reconstruction lifted the upbound line on 25 June 1989 and the downbound line on 2 December 1990, and the new elevated station building was opened on 16 December 1991. Platforms were extended to handle twelve-car formations on 4 October 1997, and from 16 May 2010 it joined the new Airport Express network (later simply Express). All-line platform doors entered service on 30 November 2024.

Notes

Since 14 December 2008 Keikyū has played an arrangement of Chiyoko Shimakura's 'Jinsei iro-iro' as the train-approach melody, in honour of the Shinagawa-born singer; the project was arranged by Hiroshi Shiotsuka with Switch handling production.
