Location
History
Nagoya Station, in Nakamura-ku, Nagoya, opened on 1 May 1886 as a stop on an initially unnamed branch line running south from the originally planned Nakasendō trunk route. After the trunk route was reassigned to the Tōkaidō alignment in 1886, the station became part of the Tōkaidō Main Line. The municipal subway connected the station in 1957 and the Aonami Line — originally a freight route — began passenger service on 6 October 2004. The current station complex, JR Central Towers, was completed in 1999, and the station formerly held the world record for the largest train station by floor area at around 410,000 m². Construction is now under way to add two underground platforms that will form the western terminus of the first section of the Chūō Shinkansen maglev.
Notes
Nagoya Station formerly held the world record for the largest train station by floor area (410,000 m²), counting JR Central Towers, completed atop it in 1999.
