Location
History
Nagamachi-Itchōme Station opened on 15 July 1987 with the inaugural section of the Sendai Subway Namboku Line, in Taihaku-ku, Sendai. It is numbered N14, lies beneath the former National Route 4 alignment, and has a single island platform. The planning name was "Hirosebashi Station", but residents felt that name belonged more naturally north of the Hirose River bridge, and the station opened under its current name. Platform-edge doors began operating on 7 November 2009. Ahead of Sendai City Hospital's relocation nearby, a new south exit (S2) opened on 11 August 2014, and once the hospital had moved the "Shiritsu Byōin-mae" (City Hospital Front) subname was transferred from Itsutsubashi Station to this station on 1 November 2014.
Notes
The station's north-1 exit leads directly to RIPPLE, a live-music venue inside the underground station premises — an unusual case of a club integrated into a subway entrance.
