Location
History
Shimo-Shimmei Station opened on 6 July 1927 on the Ōimachi Line, originally as Togoshi Station. It was renamed to its present name on 1 January 1936. From April 1976, with the introduction of five-car formations, door-cut operation began on the Ōimachi-end cars because the platform could not be lengthened where the station sat over a road amid closely built housing; this lasted only about two years until platform-extension work in the first half of 1978. An accessibility-focused rebuild starting in fiscal 2012 added elevators and escalators, with the elevators entering service on 28 February 2014.
Notes
Because Ōimachi Station lies less than a ten-minute walk away, Shimo-Shimmei is the second-least-used station on the Ōimachi Line after Kita-Senzoku, even though the headquarters of Nikon and several Shinagawa ward offices stand near its exits.
