History

The station opened as Eidan-Narimasu Station on June 24, 1983[1] as the terminus of the Yūrakuchō Line from Shintomichō. It became a through station when the line was extended to Wakōshi on August 25, 1987.

The Yūrakuchō New Line (the predecessor of today's Fukutoshin Line) began serving the station on December 7, 1994.

The station gained its current name when the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (known as Teito Kōsokudo Kōtsū Eidan in Japanese) was privatised and became Tokyo Metro on April 1, 2004. The Yūrakuchō New Line was extended and renamed on June 14, 2008.

Waist-height platform edge doors were installed in October 2010.[2]
