History
The station opened on October 15, 1925 when the line between Tenjinbashi (present-day Tenjimbashisuji Rokuchōme) and Awaji opened.[2]
Future plans
Construction is underway for grade separation. Work is being done as of 2019 to elevate a 3.8 km (2.4 mi) section of the Senri Line between this station and Shimo-Shinjō Station.[3] Originally planned to be opened by 2020, various delays have resulted in the opening being pushed to 2031.[4]
