The headquarters of JASRAC , the museum of the composer Masao Koga and the Tokyo Camii mosque are nearby . The facility is oriented from northeast to southwest and has four tracks, all of which are used for passenger traffic. These are located on two completely covered central platforms . The two inner tracks are reserved for the underground trains and those trains that are tied through. Trains to and from Shinjuku run on the outer tracks. The inner tracks lead to a double-track parking facility a few hundred meters further west, where track changes allow the U-Bahn trains to turn.

The reception building is arranged under the viaduct, the ground floor, accessible from both sides, also serves as a pedestrian underpass. Stairs, elevators and escalators lead up to a mezzanine floor and to the platforms on the third floor. The two lower floors contain around two dozen stores from the Acord shopping center , which is owned by the Odakyu Group .

history

The railway company Odawara Kyūkō Tetsudō (today's Odakyū Dentetsu ) opened the station on April 1, 1927, together with the entire Odakyū Odawara line from Shinjuku to Odawara . At the beginning it was called Yoyohata-Uehara ( 代 々 幡 上原 ), on October 15, 1941 it was renamed Yoyogi-Uehara. It was closed from June 1 to December 1, 1945 due to severe damage from an air strike by the United States Army Air Forces during the final phase of the Pacific War .

In the 1970s, the state-run subway company Teito Kōsokudo Kōtsū Eidan ( Eidan for short) planned to connect the Chiyoda Line in Yoyogi-Uehara with the Odakyū Odawara Line. In preparation for this, the Odakyū Dentetsu replaced the existing station with a new building and took the expanded facility into operation on October 18, 1977. With the opening of the missing section between Yoyogi-kōen and Yoyogi-Uehara on March 31, 1978, subways could now be tied through to the railway line. In 1993, Odakyū Dentetsu added the Acord shopping center to the station . After the privatization of Eidan, the resulting company Tōkyō Metro has been responsible for underground operations since April 2004 .
