Location
History
Mita Station opened on 21 June 1968 as a Toei Subway Line 1 station in Shiba 5-chōme, Minato City, Tokyo, providing interchange with the Japanese National Railways' Tamachi Station. The Toei Subway Line 6 platforms opened on 27 November 1973, initially as a terminus. On 1 July 1978 Line 1 was redesignated as the Toei Asakusa Line and Line 6 as the Toei Mita Line. Automatic ticket gates were introduced on 28 November 1992. The Mita Line was extended to Meguro on 26 September 2000, removing the terminus role. PASMO became usable on 18 March 2007, and platform-edge doors entered service on the Asakusa Line side on 21 December 2019. The station carries the codes A 08 (Asakusa Line) and I 04 (Mita Line).
Notes
Despite the name, Mita Station is not in Mita but in the adjacent Shiba district, named at the request of residents and institutions on the Mita side; the JR Yamanote/Keihin-Tōhoku station next to it kept the older name "Tamachi." Mita Station also features in the British rock band The Police's 1980 music video for "So Lonely."
