Station numbering was introduced to the Odakyu terminal in 2014 with Shinjuku being assigned station number OH03.[1][2]

Renovation works to the east exit started in November 2018 and were completed in November 2020.[3] The updated station building was constructed using wood from western Tokyo; the design elements, in particular its use of Shinto-inspired architecture, reflect its proximity to the Meiji Shrine.[3]

[edit]

In the manga Our Precious Conversations the train station where the two protagonists have their first chats is based on Sangūbashi Station.[4]
