Maita Station opened on 16 December 1972 on the first segment of the Yokohama Municipal Subway (today's Blue Line) at the same site as the Miyamotochō 3-chōme stop of the Yokohama City Tram, abolished in 1968. The site beneath Kamakura Kaidō served a dual purpose during construction: between 16 March and 29 November 1971 an opening in the tunnel ceiling here was used to lower all twenty-one cars of the 1000-series fleet from Kawasaki Heavy Industries into the subway, one car per night, as no nearby depot existed. Platform-edge doors entered service on 23 June 2007, and step-free street-to-concourse access, which completed Blue Line-wide barrier-free access, opened on 31 March 2012.

All twenty-one cars of the Blue Line's original 1000-series fleet were lowered into the subway one per night through a ceiling opening above Maita Station during 1971; a commemorative plaque in the Exit 1 passageway and marker posts at two points on Kamakura Kaidō above mark the spot.
