Location

History

Oshiage opened on 3 November 1912 as the Keisei Electric Tramway's Tokyo terminus (then built to 1,372 mm gauge to share track with the Tokyo Streetcar network). The street-level station was destroyed in the 10 March 1945 firebombing, and Keisei moved its platforms underground on 29 November 1960 in preparation for Toei Line 1 (now Asakusa Line), which opened to Oshiage on 4 December 1960. On 19 March 2003 Tobu Railway and the Teito Rapid Transit Authority opened additional platforms here to start through-running between the Tobu Isesaki Line and the Hanzōmon Line, making Oshiage a four-operator interchange. The nickname suffix "Skytree-mae" was introduced on 22 May 2012 with the opening of Tokyo Skytree Town.

Notes

Keisei's failed push to extend its Oshiage line to Asakusa — abandoned after a competing Tobu application and the resulting Keisei Bribery Incident — long left Oshiage a stub-terminus "urban appendix", until the 1960 Toei Line 1 connection finally gave it through-service to central Tokyo.
