Location
History
Senkawa Station opened on 24 June 1983 when the Eidan Subway (TRTA) Yūrakuchō Line section between Eidan-Narimasu (today Chikatetsu-Narimasu) and Ikebukuro entered service, in Kanamechō in Toshima ward. The station passed to Tokyo Metro on 1 April 2004 with the privatisation of TRTA. A lower underground level — the Fukutoshin Line platform, already built when the Yūrakuchō Line was constructed but left unused when the Kotake-mukaihara–Ikebukuro tracks opened as the Yūrakuchō New Line in 1994 — began revenue service on 14 June 2008 when the Fukutoshin Line opened, the two lines running through the station in a stacked arrangement with the Yūrakuchō Line above. Platform-edge doors were installed on the Yūrakuchō Line platforms in February 2014, the last station on that line to receive them.
Notes
Despite its name, the station does not stand in Senkawa but in Kanamechō, with the ward boundary between Toshima and Itabashi — which follows the course of the former Senkawa Aqueduct — running a little to the north.
